It's a similar story in the Eurobodalla, with only two cases currently in "virtual care".
Southern NSW Local Health District (SNSWLHD) reported 11 new COVID-19 cases in the 24 hours to 8pm Tuesday night, October 26.
Eight are in Queanbeyan, two are in Karabar and the other positive case is in Goulburn. All cases are under investigation as to their source.
Everyone in the district should be alert for any symptoms that could signal COVID-19, including headache, nausea, sore throat, runny nose, cough, loss of smell or taste, or fever.
If symptoms appear, people must isolate and get tested immediately, and remain isolated until a negative result is received.
