The New Zealand Ministry of Health is live with a suite of digital solutions to help COVID-19 positive people self-manage in the community, despite a few hiccups with the national COVID-19 clinical care module (CMMM) following the country’s move to phase 2 of managing the Omicron outbreak.
Omicron-positive patients will predominately be expected to self-manage at home, but digital solutions are being rolled out to help them as well as people who may need more support, Ministry of Health director-general Ashley Bloomfield said.
