NSW case statistics

Areas of increased testing

There are areas of increased testing in the Northern NSW locations of Ballina LGA, Byron Bay LGA, Lismore LGA and Tweed LGA.

It is important for the ongoing control of COVID-19 in NSW that anyone in the state who has any COVID-19 symptoms, no matter how mild, continues to get tested immediately and self-isolates until a negative test result is received.
