Hunter New England Health has updated its advice, adding a slew of new exposure sites in the Tamworth and Gunnedah areas.
In the Hunter, the Belmont vaccination centre had two separate exposures: one on Tuesday September 28 from 12.15pm to 1.15pm, and a second on Thursday September 30 from 9am to 10.30am.
The health district advised anyone who attended during those times qualifies as a casual contact.
Casual contacts are required to seek testing and isolate until a negative test result is received.
Hunter Imaging Group at East Maitland has also been flagged on Monday September 27 from 8.55am to 9.15am.
Any close contacts associated with the venues will be contacted directly by NSW Health, the health district advises.
The exposures come after the Hunter added 82 fresh cases on Sunday, with new health advice also revealed that could change how isolation works for the vaccinated.
