JOONDALUP, Clarkson, Mindarie, Currambine and Innaloo sites are among those visited last week by a woman who has tested positive for Covid-19 after returning to Perth from Sydney.
Of most concern to WA health authorities is getting people who attended Mobius Health & Performance in Packard St in Joondalup on Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday to check the stated dates and times on HealthyWA to determine if they need to get tested immediately and quarantine for 14 days.
The woman visited the gym on Tuesday, June 22 from 9am to 11.30am and from 3pm to 6pm.
On Wednesday, June 23 from 9am to 11.30am and from 4.30pm to 6pm.
On Thursday, June 24 from 3pm to 4.30pm.
At 2.35pm in a Covid-19 update the Department of Health said Connolly Primary School and Burbridge School will be closed on Monday.
The Connolly Year 5 students are close contacts – the students and staff must get tested and quarantine for 14 days.
The latest public exposure sites also includes IKEA Perth in Innaloo, Puma Mindarie and Indian Ocean Brewing Co in Mindarie, and Kmart and Coles in Ocean Keys Shopping Centre as well as Woolworths and Rockmans in Currambine Central shopping Centre.
People who have visited these sites on the stated dates and times need to get tested immediately and monitor for symptoms.
Those who were in Ocean Keys and Currambine Central shopping centres but not necessarily the outlets above need the check the stated dates and times as they need to monitor for symptoms.
