I can't believe I ate the whole thing
how the hell did the new covid-19 positive person leave managed isolation to go to countdown
He didn't know at the time he had covid (escaped Tuesday, results came back Wednesday).

Incredibly stupid and selfish thing to do tho

The guy apparently bought all his food at a self check-out stall. You hate to think how many people might have pressed that touch screen before it was cleaned.

Disgraceful. Hipkins said the current assessment is that the risk is low, so can only hope that proves to be the case. But it's unfathomable selfishness.

Meanwhile, this made me laugh:
According to the Herald, after Walker admitted to Muller on Monday that he was responsible for the leak, Muller told him he needed to own up publicly. “It’s understood later that afternoon – after the government announced the inquiry – Muller received a legal letter on Walker’s behalf,” says the Herald. “It asked the National Party leadership not to out Walker citing concerns about his privacy.”

Kiri Hannifin of Countdown Supermarkets has told RNZ Checkpoint that staff at the Victoria St West store in Auckland, visited by the man who absconded from hotel isolation and later received a positive Covid test, would be tested in the coming days. She said the 32-year-old had not engaged with other customers as he browsed the aisles for about 10 minutes, that he was wearing trendy clothing and purchased body lotion and razors.

There was one other detail: as he wandered around the shop, the man took a series of selfies on his mobile phone, said Hannifin, having viewed the CCTV footage.
Clearly went out for some essentials, then. Prick.

The Herald's interviewed the guy. Claims the reason he left was because no one told him not to.
