An Invercargill man may have become the first person in New Zealand to die of Covid-19 at home. It came as three new cases of Covid-19 were announced in the South. A spokesman would not confirm whether or not the death was related to Covid-19, only that it was not being treated as suspicious. There were three new cases of Covid-19 in the Southern District Health Board area, taking its total to 213. The Bluff wedding cluster remained one of the most significant, with 89 Covid-19 cases linked to the event, up three from Tuesday.
