18.01.2022 COVID-19 UPDATE - PORT STEPHENS We have 3 new cases of COVID-19 in Port Stephens. As a result, Tomaree Public School and Tomaree High School will be closed... tomorrow for contact tracing and deep cleaning. Goodstart Anna Bay Childcare Centre will also be closed tomorrow for contact tracing and deep cleaning. I understand all three new cases are connected with our first case, the 60 year old man who was in contact with a visitor from Sydney. More information and advice will be provided tomorrow morning by Hunter New England Health. In the meantime, health advice remains the same - if you have any COVID-19 symptoms, get tested. All families at the schools and childcare service should have received email notification of the closures with more information. I understand that everyone will want more details, but this is a rapidly moving situation. Out of respect for the people involved, more facts and advice will be provided by Hunter New England Health tomorrow as this unfolds.

03.01.2022 COVID-19 CASE CONFIRMED IN PORT STEPHENS **updated 24 July @ 7am** WHO needs to get tested? ... It is critical that ANYONE in the general Port Stephens area with symptoms of COVID-19 seek testing. NSW Health are asking anyone who visited the following locations to watch for COVID-19 symptoms and get tested immediately should any respiratory symptoms or fever occur: Salamander Bay Shopping Centre on 15 July Salamander Bay Woolworths on July 17 from 2.30pm to close, July 18 from 4pm to close, July 19 from 12.45pm to close, and July 20 from 3pm to close. The Fingal Bay Café and Takeaway on July 17 from 11.30am to 12 midday. Windsor Castle Hotel in East Maitland between 6-8 pm on 13 July Anyone who’s feeling unwell, even with the mildest symptoms of fever, cough, sore throat, loss of smell, loss of taste and shortness of breath, as well as other reported symptoms including runny nose, joint pain, muscle pain, diarrhoea, nausea/vomiting and loss of appetite should seek testing and self-isolate until they get the result. WHERE can you get tested?
