Earlier on Monday the mayor of Liverpool, the area home to the city's two growing coronavirus clusters, said she is extremely concerned about the spread of the virus in her community after locals were not wearing masks on the weekend.her local residents "have been doing their best" to follow guidance from NSW Health, but she believes fatigue has set in.
"So I think we have to be careful, even though it's frustrating ... this is a very contagious disease and we have to continue to be preventative in what we're doing." “These testing numbers are much lower than we would like,” NSW Deputy Chief Health Officer Dr Jeremy McAnulty said, urging people to come forward for testing if they had even the mildest of symptoms.“This is important throughout the state but particularly important in the western and south-western Sydney areas,” he said.
The ongoing uncovering of cases in western Sydney came as the Prime Minister accused Queensland's Deputy Premier of treating politics like television, over the state's tough border stance.
