COVID-19: Residents and visitors reminded to stay vigilant

Published on 11 August 2020

Shoalhaven City Council has received advice from NSW Health that a visitor from Sydney to Huskisson over the weekend has tested positive for COVID-19.

Shoalhaven City Council CEO Stephen Dunshea is urging those who were in Huskisson over the weekend to monitor for symptoms and to get tested.

“The health of the community is our main priority, and I strongly advise those who were at Huskisson over the weekend, to monitor for symptoms and get tested at a testing facility near you. 

“Please continue to remain vigilant, follow NSW Health advice and if you are feeling unwell, stay in and arrange to get tested” said Mr Dunshea.

To help stop the spread of COVID-19:

• If you are unwell, stay in, get tested and isolate.
• Wash your hands regularly. Take hand sanitiser with you when you go out.
• Keep your distance. Leave 1.5 metres between yourself and others.
• Wear a mask in situations where you cannot physically distance
