There are 51 new community cases today, including four in Waikato, the Ministry of Health says.
There was no media conference today.
In its statement, the Ministry said two of the Waikato cases were linked to earlier cases and they are investigating any links the other two may have.
There were 41 new community cases yesterday, all in Auckland except for one that was identified in Waikato.
Yesterday also saw records for vaccinations on the back of the government's Super Saturday Vaxathon.
The initial target of 100,000 doses was reached around 3pm and by last night almost 130,000 people had been vaccinated at almost 800 vaccination sites throughout the country.
Of the 129,995 doses administered, 39,024 were first doses and 90,971 second doses.
It was the biggest-ever one-day vaccine update for Maori, with more than 21,000 doses given - 10,941 first doses and 10,874 second doses. As well, 4223 Pasifika received their first doses and 8093 their second.
The Ministry said 84 percent of people in this country have now had their first Pfizer dose and 65 percent are fully vaccinated.
