Dear Counties Manukau District Health Board,

please provide the following information regarding the Covid-19 cases that required hospital care during the current delta outbreak so far.

1. What is the total number of Covid cases that required hospital care in your region since the start of the current delta outbreak?

2. How many of those cases have been hospitalised for
a) Covid-19 related acute health issues as a primary reason?
b) unrelated acute health issues as a primary reason while testing positive for Covid?
c) monitoring purposes only (no acute health issues at time of admission)?

3. What was the average time spent in hospital?

4. How many of those cases required supplemental oxygen at some point during their hospital stay?

Yours faithfully,

M Funken

Dear M Funken

Thank you for your Official Information Act request, received below.

 

We are working on a response for you, which will be sent as soon as
practical and within the 20 working day timeframe as per the Ombudsman's
Guidance, by 16 November 2021.  We will contact you if we have any queries
with the request or need to extend the timeframe for your response. In
those cases, we will advise why the extension is necessary, and indicate
when the response will be ready.

 

Please note that, like all DHBs across New Zealand, Counties Manukau DHB
has begun a process of proactive disclosure, which means OIA responses
will be publicly available via our website around 10 days after they have
been released.  Our response will advise if we intend to publish the
response, (with personal information removed) and related documents on the
CMDHB website. If you advise us of special reasons why proactive
disclosure should not apply to your response, we will consider this. 

 

Kind regards

Dinah
