Huge Covid exposure list is revealed with EIGHTEEN new venues including a busy Aldi, Coles and Woolworths – so do you need to isolate?
More coronavirus exposure venues have been announced, forcing thousands of Sydneysiders to isolate and get tested.
An Aldi supermarket, car yard, Woolworths, Coles and medical centre among the 18 new exposure sites across Sydney announced by NSW Health late Wednesday night.
An urgent alert has been issued for anyone who used the ATMs at the Commonwealth Bank Burwood branch on June 28 6.50pm-7.10pm and July 2 5.30pm– 5.50pm.
Anyone who attended the ATMs at the listed times is regarded as a close contact and has been ordered to get tested and isolate for 14 days, regardless of the result.
The same orders apply to anyone who attended Aldi in Canterbury on June 28, 12pm– 1:50pm, Billy’s Cars in Revesby July 2 and 3 9am-5pm or at the Myhealth Medical Centre in Burwood on July 6, 11.45am-1pm.
Thirteen casual contact exposure sites have also been listed, including Coles, Aldi and Freshworld Fruit Market at Maroubra, Costco at Casula and Woolworths at Bonnyrigg.
A host of Revesby sites were also listed included the local Woolworths, Cha Point and Bakers Delight.
Anyone at those sites at the specific times must immediately get tested and isolate until a negative result is received.
NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian has extended lockdown of Sydney and surrounding regions another week until July 16 after 27 new cases were recorded on Wednesday.
Only 13 new cases were in isolation for the entirety of their infectious period.
Ms Berejiklian warned case numbers would spike in the coming days due to the highly infectious Delta strain of the virus spreading across Sydney’s south-west.
Residents in the local government areas of Fairfield, Liverpool and Canterbury-Bankstown have been ordered to not leave home unless necessary.
Harsher restrictions haven’t been ruled out if the virus in those areas continues to spread at a rapid rate.
