A Darwin man has tested positive to Coronavirus (COVID-19) while in quarantine in New South Wales (NSW).
The man, aged in his 60s, was a passenger on the Ruby Princess cruise ship and had stayed in Sydney after becoming unwell.
He is being monitored by NSW health authorities.
As he is a resident of the Territory, the man's diagnosis will be recorded in the NT's COVID-19 statistics.
This brings the official number of NT residents diagnosed with COVID-19 to six.
There are no additional cases of COVID-19 in the Northern Territory community.
