FIFTEEN new locations have been added to the casual contact covid exposure site list in the past 24 hours, but with eased restrictions as of today (October 15), Canberrans will begin to see a lot less.

According to the ACT Health COVID-19 website, Covid Investigation Locations and Monitor for Symptoms locations will no longer be listed as exposure locations.

Only casual contact sites that have been assessed as presenting a high impact risk to the community will be listed and require action, meaning Canberrans will see far less of these.

Specific low impact risk sites and venues where the exposure has occurred via a confirmed case that is a customer or non-staff member will no longer be listed or require action (this does not apply where the confirmed case is a staff member).

The secondary contact type will also no longer be used, however, ACT Health advises that people should maintain appropriate separation from any close contacts if possible even though no formal action or quarantine is required.

People who have been to casual contact exposure locations during the times listed are expected to complete the ACT Contact Declaration Form, immediately quarantine and get tested for COVID-19 as advised by ACT Health.

If a person was at the casual contact location less than four days ago, ACT Health says they will need two tests – one test as soon as they find out they are a casual contact and another test on day five after they were at the casual contact location.

People at the casual contact location four or more days ago only need to get one test.
