Six members of Pakistan's cricket team have tested positive for Covid-19 while on tour in New Zealand.
All six have been moved from managed isolation into quarantine and the team's exemption from social-distancing rules for training has been suspended.
Health officials said all 53 members of the visiting squad were tested on arrival in the country.
New Zealand, widely praised for its pandemic response, had previously seen a total of 2,040 cases and 25 deaths.
New Zealand's cricket authorities said two of the six cases were "historical" and the other four were new. Historical can refer to a positive test returned some time after a person has recovered.
Some members of the Pakistan team had contravened protocols on their first day in managed isolation in Christchurch and would be reminded of their responsibilities, New Zealand Cricket (NZC) said.
A health ministry spokeswoman told Stuff.co.nz that several members of the Pakistan team had been seen on CCTV breaking the rules and the team was now on its "final warning". The rules had been broken despite "clear, consistent and detailed communication of expected behaviour", the spokeswoman was quoted as saying.
All members of the Pakistan squad had earlier tested negative four times before leaving the Pakistani city of Lahore.
The outcome was "disappointing for the Pakistan squad" but the "testing outcomes and the actions taken show the government system is working", NZC said.
