This HIV Testing Week (1-7 June) Illawarra Shoalhaven Local Health District (ISLHD) is reminding the community that HIV testing is still important, even in the current context of COVID-19.

An innovation partnership involving the region’s three major health services is ready to be trialled, providing local residents with access to a Virtual Community Care Centre.

Local hospitals will receive a major boost to their critical supplies, including additional life-saving equipment and thousands of surgical masks, thanks to a donation by the Tibra Capital Foundation as COVID-19 preparedness continues.

  Note: this update is current as at 19 March 2020. Please visit the ISLHD COVID-19 Visiting Hours page or the links below for current information.

As of Monday 16 March there has been one confirmed case of COVID-19 in the Illawarra Shoalhaven region. The case is a returned traveler who has had contact with another confirmed case and has been in self isolation since returning to Australia.
