ACT Health has confirmed that the ACT has recorded its first COVID-19 Case in 102 days.
"We do have the 114th case notified in the ACT"
ACT Chief Health Officer, Dr Kerryn Coleman said during a press conference.
A 70-year-old diplomat has returned from overseas travel. He flew into Sydney Airport and then travelled to the ACT via private vehicle. He didn't make any stops on the way and is currently in quarantine.
ACT Health is following up two contacts of this individual and is managing them in accordance with national guidelines.
"While we believe the risk to these two contacts is low, we are taking a very precautionary approach. This new case demonstrates that our quarantine system here in the ACT is working well to protect the Canberra community from COVID-19. But it is also a timely reminder that COVID-19 still poses a risk to the ACT and the situation can change quickly."
ACT Chief Health Officer, Dr Kerryn Coleman said during a press conference.
