 Canberrans have been warned that daily COVID-19 case numbers in the territory are likely to rise, possibly as much as tripling in the coming weeks.

ACT Chief Health Officer Kerryn Coleman said at a press conference on Monday that daily case numbers were expected to peak in late July or early August.
