No new locally acquired COVID-19 cases in NSW for a fourth consecutive day

For the fourth day in a row, NSW has not reported a single locally acquired case of COVID-19 according to NSW Health

Two new cases of COVID-19 in returned travellers were diagnosed in the 24 hours to 8pm last night, bringing the total number of cases in NSW to 4,031.

There were 6381 tests reported in the 24-hour reporting period, compared with 6353 in the previous 24 hours.

NSW Health thanked the community for all they have done towards reducing COVID-19 numbers and asked people to remain vigilant and come forward for testing immediately if symptoms like a runny nose, scratchy throat, cough or fever appear.

“This is particularly important with school holidays having started and increased movement of people around the state,” a NSW Health statement said.
