The number of patients in SA’s hospitals with the virus has fallen to 229.

There are 16 people being treated for the virus in ICU and one person is on a ventilator.

Health authorities have not been notified of any COVID-related deaths in the latest reporting period.

One patient remains in intensive care with COVID-19 in the Northern Territory, with 50 people, in total, in hospital with the virus, a small increase on yesterday.

The territory has recorded 279 new cases, putting the number of known active cases at 2,807.

Both the number of new cases recorded today and the number of active cases are down slightly compared to yesterday.

New South Wales

Health authorities in New South Wales say another five people have died with COVID-19, a reduction from the 20 deaths recorded yesterday.

There are 1,604 people in hospital with the virus, and 75 of them are requiring treatment in intensive care.

The state has recorded 9,303 new cases, down from 11,709 yesterday.

ACT

Another 823 COVID-19 cases have been reported by health authorities in the Australian Capital Territory today.

There are 69 people in hospital with COVID-19, three of whom are in intensive care.

Chief Health Officer Kerryn Coleman says that — although symptom-free household contacts of COVID-19 cases do not need to quarantine anymore under eased restrictions — people who have been exposed to the virus should still consider whether they need to be out and about.

“I do hope that these changes will provide some relief to many workplaces and businesses that have been under pressure due to workforce shortages,” Dr Coleman says.

“Also, being able to go outside for a walk should help those of us who may have struggled being stuck inside for that seven-day period.”
