In a post on his Facebook page made about 1pm today, Mr Gunner said there are “no outstanding test results we are waiting on from exposure sites”.
“We’ve had all test results back from contacts of the virus across the Territory, and they’re all negative,” the post read.
“Close contacts will continue to stay in quarantine for 14 days, and I thank these Territorians for their compliance, and for keeping the community safe.
“They will continue to be tested during their time in isolation.”
He said 1400 Covid tests were done yesterday, as well as 22,800 across the past week.
