While there are no new cases of COVID-19 within the North Coast area, NSW Health representatives are asking people to remain vigilant and follow rules following the discovery of community-transmitted cases in Queensland.
NSW Health is reminding people entering NSW from Queensland who have been in Brisbane City Council or Moreton Bay Regional Council since March 11.
Remain vigilant for symptoms of COVID-19 and get tested and isolate with even the mildest of symptoms.
Monitor the Queensland Health website regularly to check if you have attended any of the venues/places listed and immediately follow the Queensland Health public health advice and contact NSW Health on 1800 943 553 so we can support you with access to testing.
Avoid non-essential visits to hospitals and residential aged care facilities and disability residential care services until further notice. Please continue to seek medical care as usual.
People who have been in the two areas who work in hospitals, residential aged care facilities and disability residential care services should check with their employer, monitor the Queensland Health website for further advice and use masks when at work.
Anyone who entered NSW from 12.01am on March 27 who has been in Brisbane City Council or Moreton Bay Regional Council since March 11 is required to complete an online declaration.
The online declaration form, available on the Service NSW website, is for all travellers intending to enter NSW, including by air, road and rail. This form includes contact details and confirmation whether people have been to any venues of concern. This information is critical to enable NSW Health to contact travellers, if required.
Declaration forms can be completed within the 24-hour period prior to entering NSW, or when you enter NSW.
