Note: The total number of cases reported will not necessarily equal last week’s total plus new cases reported this week - this is because of data cleaning.

COVID-19-related deaths

ACT Health has been notified of one COVID-19 related death during this reporting period. The death did not occur during the current reporting period.

ACT Health extends its sincere condolences to their families and friends at this difficult time.

Notes: A COVID-19 related death is reported if the person dies with COVID-19, though it may not be the primary cause of death. ACT Health receives information about COVID-19 related deaths when the death is registered with the ACT Registry of Births, Deaths and Marriages. For this reason, COVID-19 deaths reported do not usually occur in the current reporting period.

Case numbers for influenza and Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) are reported seasonally.
