Quotes attributable to Acting Chief Health Officer, Dr Charles Pain:
“We have seen success in the use of COVID-19 wastewater testing in other Australian jurisdictions as an early detection tool and to support a targeted approach to increase COVID-19 testing in certain geographical areas.
“It is reassuring to see the detection of COVID-19 in our wastewater from the Howard Springs Quarantine Facility, as this indicates that our system is accurately detecting fragments where we expect them.
