    Covid-19 test results from contacts of the Papatoetoe cluster are coming back negative

    Covid-19 test results from contacts of the Papatoetoe cluster are coming back negative


    That includes KFC staff from the Botany Downs store - who worked at the same time as a confirmed case.

    One-thousand-514 Papatoetoe High School students and staff have returned at least one negative swab.

    More than 97 per cent of the results from the second swab are back.

    Thirty-three Kmart Botany staff deemed close contacts are negative.

    And there's nearly two-thousand tests returned from customers at the store - with just 53 to go.

    All people connected to Dark Vapes East Tamaki also have the all clear.
