Latest advice regarding novel coronavirus ahead of school returning

The NSW Departments of Health and Education have this afternoon recommended that any student who was in China over the past 14 days should not return to school or child care services this week, as the coronavirus’ incubation period can be as long as two weeks.

Students who returned to Australia more than 14 days ago and have shown no symptoms should be able to return to school this week.
