Eight of the new cases are linked to the Sydney CBD cluster that is believed to have stemmed from the gym at the City Tattersalls Club | Kaubo
NSW Health authorities are racing to contain a COVID-19 cluster that has spread from a gym in Sydney's CBD to suburbs in the city's north, west and as far as the Central Coast.
Genomic sequencing of the virus shows the Sydney CBD cluster is linked to other clusters in NSW and genetically different to that of the virus detected in a traveller and two security guards at the Marriott Hotel, Dr Selvey said. The new COVID-19 cases reported on Saturday visited several locations in Mosman, St Ives and Rosebery while potentially infectious.
Three of the 14 new cases reported on Saturday were locally acquired with no known source, two are household contacts of previously reported cases linked to Liverpool Hospital and one is in a traveller in hotel quarantine.
