It came as wet weather forced the temporary closure of the ACT's Kambah testing site, with those looking to be tested for the virus told to go to the drive-through facility at Exhibition Park, the Garran Oval hospital site or the Weston walk-in centre.
The ACT also updated its travel advice, telling residents not to travel to Newcastle or the greater Sydney area.
The territory's deputy chief health officer, Dr Vanessa Johnston, said the advice was for the safety of the wider community.
"If you have visited locations identified by NSW Health as having cases of COVID-19, particularly around Newcastle or Greater Sydney, please follow the advice being provided by the New South Wales authorities," Dr Johnston said.

"Before considering any travel outside the ACT, keep up to date with the latest affected areas and travel restrictions. Follow the guidance on both the ACT COVID-19 website and the COVID-19 website of the state you are travelling to."
