Up to 8pm Tuesday night, there were no new cases for Orange, Cabonne or Blayney and just five recorded across the Western NSW Local Health District.

These infections were identified Dubbo (1), Wellington (2), and Walgett (2).

Yesterday, a previously listed site and time of exposure on the NSW Health website was edited.

Orange's Ophir Hotel had originally said a COVID-positive person was there between the hours of 10am and 11pm on Monday, October 11. On Tuesday, that time was updated to say it was actually between 7am and 11pm on October 11.

The last time a new case was recorded for Orange was Sunday - bringing the LGA's total number of cases for the week (from Monday, October 11, - aka 'Freedom Day' - to Sunday, October 17) to 12.

On the same day, a new venue of concern was added to NSW Health's list of exposure sites for Orange. The COVID positive-person visited Eureka Street Furniture at the Orange Homemaker Centre between 5.05pm and 5.10pm on Wednesday, October 13.

In the 24 hour period to 8pm on Monday just one new case of COVID-19 was detected across the whole western NSW health district - which is the lowest number of new cases for the region since the outbreak started in western NSW on August 11.
