Covid update: Five new  cases, none in Lismore

While five new cases of Covid-19 have been reported in Northern NSW Local Health District (NNSWLHD) over the past 24 hours, none were in Lismore LGA.



NNSWLHD chief executive Wayne Jones said the new Covid cases are in the Grafton area of the Clarence Valley Local Government Area (LGA).


“The cases are household contacts, and the source of infection is under investigation,” Mr Jones said.


The mobile vaccination van, however will be in Lismore LGA - in Goonellabah today and tomorrow. 


The van is a collaboration with Social Futures, and will move to Kyogle and Woodenbong next week.  


“We continue to encourage people to get vaccinated against COVID-19 as soon as they are able to, and to be alert for any symptoms of COVID-19 and get tested immediately if symptoms develop.”


There have now been 130 total cases in NNSWLHD since 16 June. 


“Even if you are fully vaccinated you should get tested and isolate immediately if you have even the mildest of COVID-19 symptoms - a slightly runny nose, a scratchy or sore throat or generally feeling under the weather,” Mr Jones said.


There are more than 500 COVID-19 testing locations across NSW. Find a clinic at COVID-19 testing clinics or contact your GP.
