Yesterday, the Ministry of Health finally revealed how many of the 55 people who left managed isolation early on compassionate leave were not tested for Covid.

The answer was 51.

Brooking said today that 16 people out of the group of 55 who left managed isolation were allowed to leave to isolate with family who were dying, four were granted day visits to visit a dying family member and they returned to isolation each day. One person was granted leave because they were terminally ill.

People who visited family members who were dying had to wear PPE while visiting, were not allowed to leave their vehicles and were required to undergo a Covid-19 test at a community testing station.

Thirty-nine of the group of 55 have been tested and returned negative results. Eleven will not be tested because of health reasons or because they're children. Three are awaiting results and one person who has had a test has not returned contact from the Ministry.

Brooking confirmed that person had been referred to enforcement services. Bloomfield said the Ministry would have been alerted if that person had returned a positive case.

The only people released from isolation on compassionate grounds who have since tested positive were the two sisters who came from the UK.

Of the 190 guests at the Novotel Ellerslie from June 6-13, where the sisters initially stayed, five guests have still not responded to health authorities.

They had been referred to the Ministry's enforcement services.

"We can call on police if necessary," Bloomfield said.

On the numbers, Bloomfield said: "I haven't been trying to hide anything. I just haven't had them."

"We're doing everything we can to reassure New Zealanders these people do not pose a risk."

Not all of the applications for people to leave managed isolation on compassionate grounds required people be tested, Brooking said.

"A large number of the applications that were approved during June 9 to June 16 related to previous applications, we had a large number that were approved that weren't related to compassionate grounds and a large number were people who completed seven days and returned a negative test."
