Australia now has 200 confirmed cases of coronavirus, but there are no new cases in Canberra.
The latest coronavirus statistics for the ACT continue to show just one confirmed case of the virus in the territory.
The count as of midday on Saturday was one confirmed case, and 832 people who had tested negative.
The negative testing tally increased by 184 people, from 648 as of 3pm on Friday.
Meanwhile, the Canberrans who attended a meeting on February 28 with a Defence employee who subsequently tested positive for the virus completed their stints in self-isolation as of midnight on Friday.
Some of those people developed symptoms after the encounter but were tested and have returned negative results.
ACT Minister for Health Rachel Stephen-Smith said she was pleased that everyone followed the health advice.
"Thank you to the people who self-quarantined for this period for their willing cooperation with our health protection service," Ms Stephen-Smith said.
"This was a demonstration of people doing the right thing and our heath system working exactly as it should."
