WA Health has issued updated advice for travellers who have recently returned from New Zealand.
The advice follows reports that an infectious person from Sydney travelled to New Zealand between 18-21 June.
Anyone who has recently arrived into WA from New Zealand and has been to one of the listed exposure sites during the relevant times is required to:
- Get a COVID-19 test within 48 hours
- Self-quarantine for 14 days after date of exposure
- Present for a COVID-19 test on day 11.
Anyone who has arrived into WA from the Wellington area after 18 June but hasn’t visited any exposure sites should:
- Monitor for symptoms
- Get tested for COVID-19 if symptoms develop.
All recently returned travellers from New Zealand should continue to monitor the New Zealand Ministry for Health site in case additional locations are added.
A list of testing clinics is available on the HealthyWA website.
