A man in his 40s who arrived from Mexico last Wednesday is New Zealand's newest case.
As with all recent cases, he has been in managed isolation since his arrival.
Only 681 tests were processed yesterday, with 673 taken in managed facilities.
The Ministry of Health says it's aware the school holidays and the lower influenza rates may be having an impact.
But it is urging people offered a test to take it.
The Health Minister says detecting cases in the community is an important part of the overall strategy.
