The government has postponed the next MIQ lottery due to an “unprecedented” number of Omicron cases coming into New Zealand.
There has been a 10-fold increase in positive Covid-19 cases at the border compared to last month – with a seven day rolling average now up to 33.
In a statement published on the MIQ website on Tuesday evening, head of MIQ Chris Bunny said the next room release – scheduled for 20 January – had been postponed.
