Health authorities in NSW have alerted residents in southern NSW of a new venue of concern visited by confirmed case of COVID-19.

Anyone who attended Foodworks at 152 Sheridan Street in Gundagai, on May 19 between 11am and 12pm have been told to monitor for symptoms after a member of a family who tested positive to the virus visited the venue while holidaying from Victoria.

Anyone who develops symptoms consistent with COVID-19 has been urged to get tested immediately and self-isolate until a negative result is received.
