Public health alert – Further venues 17 June

NSW Health reported earlier today (Thursday) that a man in his 40s from Sydney’s north-western suburbs had tested positive for COVID-19.

His test results showed low virus levels and he is not yet linked to any known cases. An expert panel convened by NSW Health this evening reviewed the results of additional testing and was unable to rule out the possibility the person had COVID-19.

The man’s three household contacts have all returned negative results to date.

Out of an abundance of caution, NSW Health is asking people who have attended the following venue at the time listed to immediately call NSW Health on 1800 943 553, get tested and self-isolate until you receive further advice from NSW Health:
