Seems the figures are still too high for relaxation by government with hospitals and medical care at a premium.
University of Auckland computational biologist Dr David Welch told Morning Report it was hard to know exactly how many infections were out there but all signs pointed to numbers being “back to reasonable levels”.
The seven-day rolling average of community cases was 2738, which was down compared to last Monday’s average of 2996. [In a week.]
But wastewater results also showed fewer infections.
“We don’t know exactly how many infections there are, but everything points to much fewer now than there were three or four weeks ago.”
Welch said the most recent wave had been driven by new variants in the community – and fewer numbers meant there were less people susceptible to the virus that it could infect.
Case numbers would stay low with higher immunity in the population – and until new variants came along.
Welch told Morning Report he was in favour of better surveillance – including a prevalence survey and testing at the border.
It would help give officials a better idea of what was coming in from overseas – and what New Zealand could expect to face in months to come…

Cost of living up? Rates up 18.4% merely on demans pressures from greedy b;s and open-wide credit, and repairing a relatively small defect on my ols car requires $80 GST. Why should we have to pay GST on ordinary second hand stuff? It is too wide in its scope, it is too high in its percentage.
This from a hymn to Him – with small changes can become one to them, about tax.
So High, You Can’t Get Over It,
So Low, You Can’t Get Under It,
So Wide, You Can’t Get Around It,
Oh, Wonderful Love!
This is a bunch of fervent people singing about love though also tax I think. Pity we can’t get the same turnout in political meetings – perhaps we should brighten them up with local musos.
