Charles Sturt University have confirmed thorough cleaning processes are in place at the buildings where a close contact attended in Albury.

In line with public health advise the buildings will undergo a deep clean if the close contact or anyone else returns a positive COVID test result.

PREVIOUSLY:

Someone who attended Charles Sturt University's Albury campus earlier this week has been identified as a close contact to a positive COVID-19 case.

Charles Sturt University confirmed a person from the campus was a close contact of a positive case and was isolating awaiting test results from a COVID-19 swab.

They did not say whether the person was a staff member or student.

The University said following NSW Health advice, they had notified anyone who may be a secondary contact.

"A secondary contact is someone who has been in close physical proximity to a close contact," they explained.

"Secondary contacts are required to take a COVID-19 test and self-isolate until they and the close contact receive a negative result."

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW:

The secondary contacts were identified using staff and building access records.

In an email to staff and students the university said "out of an abundance of caution we are notifying all Albury staff and students of the locations, dates and times where the close contact was present on-campus."

CSU advised if staff or students were at any of the below areas at the relevant times they were a secondary contact.

If you are a secondary contact you must get tested and isolate until you AND the close contact receive negative test results.
