NSW Health would like to thank the communities of Coonabarabran, Dubbo, Forbes and Moree for their excellent response to calls for increased testing after two cases of COVID-19 travelled through regional NSW while potentially infectious.

For the six-day period from Sunday 6 June to Friday 12 June, compared with the previous week (Sunday 30 May to Saturday 5 June), there were significant increases in the number of people presenting for testing at Dubbo (359 to 1,906), Moree (58 to 1,337), Forbes (47 to 544) and Coonabarabran (25 to 116).

NSW Health continues to urge anyone who resides or works in, or has visited Gillenbah, Forbes, Dubbo, Coonabarabran and Moree since 1 June to be especially vigilant for the onset of even the mildest of cold-like symptoms, and to get tested immediately and isolate should they occur.
