It comes as WA recorded a further 24 local COVID-19 cases overnight, forcing Health Minister Amber-Jade Sanderson to concede the Omicron strain cannot be eliminated in WA.

In an update on Sunday Ms Sanderson said the number of new cases was higher than WA was used to reporting, but all cases had been linked to previously known cases.

“I think it’s clear that we are not going to eliminate Omicron,” she said. “It’s now about how we suppress and manage Omicron.”

She pleaded for more people to get tested if they had symptoms or had visited an exposure site.
