Today we are reporting 5,690 community cases, 514 hospitalisations and 10 deaths. Today’s seven-day rolling average of cases is 8,355, while the seven-day rolling average of cases as at last Monday was 7,986.
COVID-19 deaths Today we are sadly reporting the deaths of 10 people with COVID-19. The deaths being reported today include people who have died over the past three days.
Delays to reporting can be associated with people dying with COVID-19, rather than from COVID-19, and COVID being discovered only after they have died.
Note that one of the deaths previously reported of a child under 9 years of age has now been assessed as one where COVID-19 is not a contributing factor, and this death has now been removed from our tally.
