Testing numbers in NSW dropped on Sunday, with 7765 tests reported to 8pm on Sunday compared with 13,635 the day before. Speaking to Jim Wilson on 2GB, Health Minister Brad Hazzard said he had been working with the Ministry of Health and Ms Berejiklian to relax these restrictions. Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews has been urged not to bow to pressure when easing coronavirus restrictions as the falling daily infection rate leads to growing calls for the government to bring forward its road map.
Victoria recorded 11 new cases on Monday, its lowest daily rise since June 16 when there were nine cases. However, the daily total was revised to nine after two cases were classified. Dr Thompson urged the Victorian people and government to stay the course, and not fall victim to lockdown fatigue by opening up sooner than is safe.
