The ACT records 16 new cases, as it sees out its first week of lockdown.

The ACT has recorded 16 new COVID-19 cases — including one linked to a childcare centre, taking the total number of active cases in Canberra to 83., including the Goodstart Early Learning Centre in Turner and 15 public transport journeys.
