Anyone who went to Westfield Bondi Junction between June 12 and June 18 has been asked to get a COVID-19 test.
Those people do not need to isolate, but the test is a precaution to contain the Delta strain outbreak.
"If you've been to one of the close contact venues, you should have been contacted about being in isolation for the 14 days," NSW Chief Health Officer Dr Kerry Chant said.

"For the casual contact venue check the specific advice, but if you don't have symptoms and are just going forth because we are asking you to attend, you don't need to self-isolate what we are asking you to minimise your contact with others until you have a negative test."
Dr Chant noted the test requirement included those who had only been in the car parks of Westfield.
Another ten cases of coronavirus have been diagnosed in New South Wales, with many of those to be counted in tomorrow's official figures.
One mystery case has not yet been linked to any previous infections.
The case is a primary school student who attends St Charles Catholic school in Waverley.
The school is currently notifying parents.

Exposure sites released by NSW Health earlier on Monday included the BP Service Station on Seven Hills Road in Baulkham Hills on June 13 from 11.55am to 12.05pm and a Salvos Store, on Bellevue Street in Tempe on June 17 and June 12 from 9am-5pm.
People who were at the op shop are defined as "close contacts" and must get tested and isolate for 14 days even if they test negative.
The Tempe shop is close to Ikea and Decathlon which were the subject of earlier alerts.
Anybody affected should call NSW Health on 1800 943 553.
The shop was listed as an exposure site before, but the timings have now been widened.
It is thought one of Sunday's new cases - a man in his 50s from the Sutherland Shire - likely contracted his infection while visiting the store.
People who were at the BP garage should get tested as a "casual contact" and stay at home until they get a negative result.

The Tier One stores are Country Road and Seed, both between 12.30 and 1pm, and Nike between 12.50 and 1.15pm.
Chief Health Officer Dr Kerry Chant also issued a renewed call for everyone who visited the Westfield at Bondi Junction at any time last weekend to get tested - even if they only went to the carpark.
To encourage more individuals to come forward, Dr Chant said the mandate to isolate after testing until receiving a negative result will not apply to people who went to the Bondi shopping centre but didn't visit specific venues of concern, unless they develop symptoms.
Officials have also reminded people to get vaccinated if eligible.
