There is also confusion as to who exactly in Tauranga is monitoring overall vaccination numbers at the port. In other words, who knows how many Tauranga port workers have not yet been vaccinated? The Rio de la Plata was tied up at the Port of Tauranga for more than two days last week. It was initially thought 94 Tauranga port workers were linked in some way to the Singapore-registered vessel during that period. Additional test results required for some port workers had also come back negative, although six results were still pending.
