Students are now back in the classroom at Papatoetoe High School for the first time since three community cases of Covid-19 were linked to the school. After one week off, and a testing blitz, the principal Vaughan Couillault says any further cases are highly unlikely. Auckland is still in Alert Level 2, and Cabinet will make a call on what to do about the city's Alert Level this afternoon. RNZ's Political Editor, Jane Patterson, spoke to Māni Dunlop.
