Please get tested even if you have had a test in recent days. If your exposure at the casual
contact venue was in the past four days, you must get another test on day five from the date
of exposure. Wear a mask around others and limit your movements until you get another
negative result. You should continue to monitor for symptoms and if any symptoms appear,
get tested and isolate again.

If additional venues are identified through further contact tracing these will be announced as soon as they are known. Staff working at these venues will be risk assessed by the Public Health Unit and advised of isolation and testing requirements.
Anyone who checked in to a venue of concern during the times listed, using the Service NSW QR app, will be notified by SMS from NSW Health as soon as possible over the next 48 hours.
Everyone in the District should be alert for any symptoms that could signal COVID-19, including headache, nausea, sore throat, runny nose, cough, loss of smell or taste, or fever.
