A spokesman for the Western NSW Local Health District said there had been no confirmed COVID-19 cases in the WNSWLHD, including Dubbo.

Over the past four weeks, a total of 4525 tests have been undertaken in the Dubbo area. This is a rate of 84 tests per 1,000 people.

Other areas in the Central West have comparable testing rates.

Blayney has seen 324 tests at a rate of 44, Orange has had 2,251 with a 53 rate, while 1,935 tests have been done in Bathurst at a rate of 44.

ALSO MAKING NEWS:

In all of Western NSW 14,743 tests have been done at a 52 rate, with no confirmed cases.

The figures are current as of Sunday, June 27.

Bourke has also recorded no cases.

WNSWLHD chief executive Scott McLachlan also cautiously welcomed news that subsequent sewage testing in Bourke had not detected further evidence of COVID-19 after a sample taken last week indicated a person in the area recently had the virus.

"We are still encouraging everyone in the community, and recent visitors, to be alert for any cold-like symptoms, even if they're mild, and to be tested if they occur," he said.
