SBS has launched a live translation service of the daily NSW government COVID-19 press conference in languages other than English to provide communities with access to critical health messages.
The service will be introduced in additional languages including Mandarin and Assyrian shortly.
"This expands on SBS’s ongoing work providing essential support for diverse communities during the pandemic, delivering trusted, independent and accurate information in more than 60 languages across our multiplatform services." NSW Digital and Customer Service Minister Victor Dominello said the initiative would also be pushed on the government's social media channels.
