Published on 18 February 2021
Victorians with even the mildest of COVID-19 symptoms are urged to get tested following the detection of viral fragments in Victoria’s expanded wastewater monitoring program.
Weak detections of viral fragments have been found in wastewater in samples collected on 16 February in the St Kilda, Caulfield and Caulfield North area and the Carrum Downs and Langwarrin area, and in a sample collected on 15 February from the Wantirna South and Boronia area.
Anyone who has any symptoms of COVID-19 is urged to get tested, especially if you live in or have visited one of these areas during these periods:
Fragments of the virus detected in wastewater may be due to a person with COVID-19 being in the early active infectious phase or it could be because someone is continuing to shed the virus after the early infectious period.
Further information about the wastewater testing program can be found at Wastewater monitoring.
Please call ahead before visiting a testing site, unless you choose to be tested at a drive-through testing site. For all drive-through locations, you must be in a vehicle to be tested, you cannot walk in or ride a bicycle into a drive-through site.
With high temperatures forecast over coming days, some testing sites may have to close or alter their hours of operation.
We advise the public to make sure they have plenty of water, fuel and other necessary items in case they experience a lengthy wait.
New testing sites, extended hours and expected wait times are regularly updated at Where to get tested.
Coronavirus (COVID-19) testing remains one of the best ways we can keep people safe and stay open, so we're asking anyone with symptoms, no matter how mild, to get tested.
