A recently confirmed COVID-19 case has been living in an apartment block located at 17-19 James Street, Windale.
The confirmed case is safely isolating off-site, and the District is arranging urgent onsite testing for affected residents. All residents have been contacted and advised to isolate until tested.
Anyone who visited the apartment complex from the evening of Friday, 20 August to the morning of Tuesday 24 August, must get tested and isolate until a negative result is received.
This situation reinforces the need for everyone living in apartment complexes to wear a face mask in shared foyer or lobby areas, lifts, stairwells and corridors, and shared laundry facilities of apartment complexes. This advice applies to everyone, including residents, visitors, building managers, contractors, delivery drivers and cleaners.
