Anyone who attended the Lennox Village shopping centre during a 45 minute period last Saturday has been forced into two weeks of isolation.

The Emu Plains shopping centre has now been upgraded to a ‘close contact’ venue as concerns grow over a number of local cases.

Anyone who attended the centre on Saturday, July 10 between 4pm and 4.45pm must get tested for COVID-19 and then isolate for 14 days regardless of the result.

The 14 day period can start on the last day they were at the site.

There’s also an expanded period for the centre from the casual contact perspective. If you were at the centre between 3.45pm and 4pm or between 4.45pm and 5pm you must get tested and isolate until you receive a negative result.

Meantime, anyone who was at Aldi inside Lennox Village on Saturday, July 10 between 3.45pm and 4pm is considered a casual contact and must get tested and isolate until they receive a result.

Premier Gladys Berejiklian will announce the latest COVID-19 case numbers at 11am today.
