NT Government declares Greater Sydney a coronavirus hotspot, effective immediately
The Northern Territory Government has declared Greater Sydney — including the Blue Mountains, Illawarra and the Central Coast — a coronavirus hotspot, effective immediately.
The declaration means anyone arriving from those locations will have to undertake a fortnight of supervised quarantine at a cost of $2,500.
Anyone who has arrived in the Northern Territory from those regions since the 11th of December needs to immediately self-isolate and get a coronavirus test.
“Please call the 1800 number — 1800 008 002 — and book an appointment to get tested,” Acting Chief Minister Nicole Manison said.
Additional resources have been allocated to the hotline and its opening hours have been extended.
More to come.
