Public Health Alert - Victoria

NSW Health is closely monitoring the situation in Victoria as local health authorities investigate four COVID-19 cases detected in Melbourne's northern suburbs. The new cases visited a number of venues while infectious. 

People arriving in NSW from the Greater Melbourne area, including essential freight workers, are reminded that they must complete a declaration which confirms they have not attended one of these venues of concern. The declaration form is available on the Service NSW website, and can be completed in the 24-hour period before entering NSW or on arrival. This process is to support contact tracing efforts to help reduce the risk of spread of the virus.

NSW Health will be contacting people who have completed declarations to ask them to check the Victoria Department of Health and Human Services website and immediately follow the outlined public health advice. Venues may be updated, so it is important to check this page regularly.

If you have been in Victoria since 10 May and attended any of the venues identified at the times listed, please contact NSW Health immediately on 1800 943 553.
