Press release

Statement from the National Public Health Emergency Team - Thursday 4 November

The Health Protection Surveillance Centre has today been notified of 3,024 confirmed cases of COVID-19.

As of 8am today, 458 COVID-19 patients are hospitalised, of whom 90 are in ICU.

Note:

A technical issue impacted processing of COVID-19 cases on CIDR on 2 November 2021, resulting in an artificially low number of notifications reported on CIDR on that date and an elevated count the following day, 3 November 2021.

Given the impact on CIDR notifications for these days, the daily case numbers of 3,174 and 3,024 reported on 3 and 4 November respectively are based on SARS-CoV-2 results uploaded to the COVID Care Tracker.

The technical issue has been resolved and daily case reporting through CIDR will recommence in the coming days.
