Canberra has recorded nine new cases on Thursday with no active cases currently in ACT hospitals, as ACT Health carries out maintenance on its reporting system.
ACT Health said in their daily report the total number of active cases and negative tests "is currently unavailable due to maintenance being carried out on the reporting system".
Meanwhile, a house party in Wanniassa attended by up to 150 teenagers on Halloween eve has been identified as a COVID superspreading event, generating clusters across a number of schools and colleges.
On Thursday, ACT Health Minister Rachel Stephen-Smith said there were 17 schools affected by COVID-19 exposures.
She said the latest advice was that only two schools had seen transmission of the virus.
Data from November 3 found that about 85 per cent of ACT 12-15 year-olds were fully vaccinated, while about 97 per cent had a first dose.
Meanwhile, Mawson Primary School has been identified as a COVID exposure location, but will remain open.
A patient who was reported as being on a ventilator in intensive care on Monday remains in hospital, ACT Health said in a statement on Tuesday evening.
"This individual remains in hospital; however, they have been 'cleared' or released from isolation in accordance with the national guidelines. This means they are no longer an 'active' or infectious case of COVID-19 and as a result, they are no longer included in our COVID-19 hospitalisation figures," a spokesperson said.
