The cases drove from Melbourne to the Sunshine Coast, stopping at places in Gillenbah, Forbes, Dubbo, Coonabarabran and Moree. They signed in to several venues using QR codes.
Anyone who resides or works in, or has visited these areas since 1 June is asked to be especially vigilant for the onset of even the mildest of cold-like symptoms and is urged to come forward for testing immediately if they appear, then isolate until a negative result is received.

As part of the state's ongoing sewage monitoring program, samples taken recently from the sewerage systems in Forbes and Castle Hill have detected no fragments of the virus that causes COVID-19.
This comes after two positive detections were reported at Castle Hill on Sunday 6 June and Wednesday 9 June.
People who have recently recovered from COVID-19 can continue to shed virus fragments into the sewerage system for several weeks even after they are no longer infectious.
ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø Health asks everyone who has been in the Castle Hill area to continue to monitor carefully for symptoms. If they appear, please be tested without delay and isolate until a negative result is received.
