New Zealand also has its first known case of the XE variant of Omicron, discovered in a traveller on April 20, a day after they arrived in New Zealand.

新西兰也出现了首个已知的Omicron XE变种病毒病例，4月20日，一名旅行者在抵达新西兰的第二天发现了该病毒。

It's the first known detection in New Zealand of the variant, a combination of the BA.1 and BA.2 sub variants of Omicron and for which early evidence indicates might be slightly more transmissible than BA.2, which itself is more transmissible than BA.1.

这是新西兰首次发现这种变种，它是Omicron的ba1和ba2亚型的组合，早期证据表明，这种亚型的传染性可能略高于ba2，而ba2本身的传染性比ba1更强。

The variant was discovered through whole genome sequencing and the person was isolating at home, the Health Ministry said.

卫生部表示，该变异是通过全基因组测序发现的，目前该名患者正在家中隔离。

XE had been spreading overseas and its arrival here wasn't unexpected.
"At this stage, the public health settings already in place to manage other Omicron variants are assessed to be appropriate for managing XE and no changes are required.

XE一直在海外传播，它来到这里并不意外。“在此阶段，经评估，用于管理其他Omicron变体的现有公共卫生设置适合管理XE，无需进行任何更改。

"There is no evidence to date that XE causes more severe disease than other Omicron lineages, noting that it takes weeks or months to identify the severity of each new variant."

“到目前为止，没有证据表明XE比其他Omicron谱系更能导致严重的疾病，需要花费数周或数月的时间来确定每个新变体的严重程度。”

The two children included in today's death toll were aged under 9, the ministry said.

该部门表示，今天统计死亡中的两名儿童年龄不到9岁。

A person aged in their 20s was also among the 19 new deaths, which include people who died over the last seven days and which takes the total number of publicly reported deaths with Covid-19 to 665.
