Newmarch House, the scene of one of the state's deadliest coronavirus outbreaks, was in the clear on Tuesday morning after reporting a false-positive case.
On Monday evening, Newmarch House, the scene of one of the state's deadliest coronavirus outbreaks, said it was investigating a possible new COVID-19 infection at the aged care facility."We are all relieved and sincerely appreciate the support received from NSW Health," operator Anglicare said in a statement."We are continuing our precautions and retaining our infection control procedures and other protocols for the time being.
Meantime, NSW Police Assistant Commissioner Tony Crandell, who heads the police coronavirus operation, said the Public Health Order was being amended as the state heads into the party season. "Police are taking this very seriously: we don't want an increase of people coming together to equal an increase of coronavirus cases, we don't want complacency to creep in."
"The liability shifts from just the person who arranges the gathering to everybody that attends that gathering," he said.
