Tasmania has recorded 751 new cases of COVID-19 in the state, as health authorities warn the true number of active cases is likely much higher than what is being reported.
Five people are now in hospital with COVID, but only one person is specifically being treated for COVID-19 symptoms.
The remaining four were admitted for other medical conditions, and no patients are in intensive care.
There are now 3,534 active cases of COVID-19 in Tasmania, with 237 people released from isolation in the last 24 hours.
Yesterday, health authorities warned that “one in 50” Tasmanians will likely be an active COVID case in the coming week, with Public Health director Mark Veitch estimating one in 170 people have been infected already.
More to come.
