If you have symptoms of Covid-19 and have been tested either through your local doctor, or a designated Covid-19 testing clinic, you must self-isolate until either advised by your doctor or you receive a SMS message from NSW Health Pathology advising you of the result of your test.
Over the last few weeks, there have been an increase of positive Covid-19 cases confirmed as a result of people not affectively self-isolating from the time they go for the test, to when their results have been received.
In addition, a spike in cases of Influenza (A/B) and RSV have made winter even more challenging.
We strongly encourage people to revisit some of the basic principles of limiting the spread of infection:
Keep away from school or work if unwell and get tested for COVID
Practice social distancing
Wear masks: they work!
Get your booster vaccine if eligible
