One new case to 8pm last night is an aged care worker from SummitCare Baulkham Hills aged care facility. They have received their first dose of the Pfizer vaccine. When this worker was identified as a close contact, they went into isolation immediately, and this has resulted in no further exposures for residents at the facility.
This brings the total number of cases associated with the aged care facility to 11, including six residents and five aged care workers.
