The Tathra Hotel on NSW's South Coast had already been linked to a confirmed Victorian case and a Woolworths store in Balmain was named as a place of concern this month after a worker who had returned from hotel quarantine in Victoria tested positive.
Epidemiologist and lecturer in international health at the University of NSW Abrar Ahmad Chughtai said the emergence of more case clusters is cause for concern. "At this point in time, we can't say it's a second wave but we should be ready for it. We can easily contain these cases but, on the other hand, they could easily spread."
