CHANGES TO VISITOR RESTRICTIONS IN NORTHERN NSW HOSPITALS

Only one new case was reported in the Northern New South Wales Health District today.

The Grafton resident wasn’t in the community while infectious.

Exposure sites from earlier this week have been added in Ballina, including Aldi and Blooms Chemist at Ballina Fair Shopping Centre.

Meanwhile visitor restrictions have now been eased at Northern New South Wales hospitals.

Patients are now allowed to have one visitor, once a day for one hour – as long as they are over 12 years-old and are fully vaccinated.
