Director of the SNSWLHD public health unit Tracey Oakman said they were thankful for the high testing numbers and the cooperation of close and casual contacts in the region.
"Everyone has a part to play to help stop the spread of COVID-19 in our community," she said.
"While we are pleased with the testing numbers, we need to stay extra vigilant."
SNSWLHD has urged anyone feeling unwell - even with the mildest of symptoms such as a runny nose, scratchy or sore throat, cough, fever, shortness of breath, headache, tiredness, loss of taste or smell, nausea, diarrhoea or muscle aches - to self-isolate and seek COVID- 19 testing, to ensure cases in the community are identified as quickly as possible.
To help stop the spread of COVID-19:
- If you are unwell, get tested and isolate right away - don't delay.
- Wash your hands regularly. Take hand sanitiser with you when you go out.
- Keep your distance. Leave 1.5 metres between yourself and others.
- Wear a mask at indoor venues, especially if you can't physically distance
