"People who have tested positive for COVID-19 in the past two to three weeks are now being released from self-isolation consistent with guidelines provided by the Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) monitoring during their isolation period and are therefore no longer considered to be active cases," Goulburn Valley Health chief executive Matt Sharp said.
"The number of active cases reported each day will vary as people are being released from self-isolation and also if there any new active cases of COVID-19.
"GV Health is continuing to undertake contact tracing and monitoring of current active cases in Shepparton in consultation with the DHHS.
"Anyone who is a known close contact and has been tested for COVID-19 must stay at home."
