As at 8pm Tuesday 2 June 2020, there have been no new cases of COVID-19 diagnosed since 8pm 1 June, meaning the total number of cases in ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø remains at 3,104.
There were 7,018 tests carried out in the reporting period, compared with 5,432 in the previous 24 hours. More than 520,000 COVID-19 tests have now been carried out in ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø.
There are currently 69 COVID-19 cases being treated by ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø Health. This includes two people being treated in an intensive care unit. Neither of these patients require a ventilator.
In ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø, 2,691 people have recovered from COVID-19.
While there have been no cases recorded in the past 24 hours, the virus is likely circulating among people in the community with mild symptoms. As such, the risk of outbreaks and a resurgence of cases remains.
ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø Health is again urging anyone feeling unwell – even with the mildest of symptoms such as a runny nose or scratchy throat – to come forward and get tested, so cases in the community are identified as quickly as possible.
With further restrictions continuing to lift, it remains essential that everyone maintains social distancing of 1.5 metres and regularly washes their hands to minimise the risk of virus transmission between people. People who may show no obvious symptoms or have very mild symptoms can unknowingly pass it to others if they are incubating the infection.
