About the data:
- Source: This is provisional information taken daily at 9 am from a live database, EpiSurv (ESR) and is likely to change as more details are provided about individual cases.
- Confirmed cases are people that have had a positive laboratory test. For more details please refer to Case definition of COVID-19 infection.
- A probable case is one without a positive laboratory result, but which is treated like a confirmed case based on its exposure history and clinical symptoms.
- Active cases are people that have not recovered or died. 'Active' does not mean that these cases are infectious.
- Recovered cases are people who had the virus, are at least 10 days since onset and have not exhibited symptoms for 48 hours, and have been cleared by the health professional responsible for their monitoring.

Note: Prioritised ethnicity classification is used for reporting purposes. Each case is allocated to a single ethnic group based on the ethnic groups they have identified with, which are, in order of priority: Māori, Pacific Peoples, Asian, MELAA (Middle Eastern / Latin American / African) and European/Other. This means that if a person identifies as being Māori and New Zealand European, the person is counted as Māori.

Transmission
| Transmission type | % of cases |
|---|---|
| Imported cases | 39% |
| Imported related cases | 30% |
| Locally acquired cases, epidemiologically linked | 25% |
| Locally acquired cases, unknown source | 6% |
| Source under investigation | 0% |
Source: ESR EpiSurv extract as at 09:00 28 June 2020
Please note that ESR has changed the source definitions, cases have been classified by source of infection as follows:
- Imported cases: Cases with a reported history of international travel within 14 days of onset.
- Imported related cases: Cases that have a reported link (close contact or epidemiological link) to an imported/overseas acquired case.
- Locally acquired cases, epidemiologically linked: Cases that have a reported link (close contact or other epidemiological link) to a locally acquired case with unknown source.
- Locally acquired cases, unknown source: Cases that have no reported history of international travel within 14 days of onset and no recorded epidemiological link to a source case.
- Source of infection remains under investigation whereby source of infection could not be classified due to incomplete EpiSurv case report forms. These cases are removed from further analyses in the sections below.
