There has been one new case of COVID-19 recorded in the Northern Territory in the past 24 hours.
The person is one of the workers from the Tanami mine site and is a close contact of the initial case. The man arrived in Darwin on 25 June 2021 and was transferred to Howard Springs Quarantine Facility on 26 June 2021 as a high risk case. The man’s first test was negative. As such, there are no public exposure sites associated as the man is not thought to be infectious when he arrived in Darwin.
Lockdown measures remain in place for Greater Darwin until 1pm Friday and for Alice Springs until 1pm on Saturday.
