NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian has confirmed there will be no further easing of the state’s coronavirus restrictions this week.
Key points:
- QLD, SA and TAS have announced they’ll start to ease restrictions from next week
- NSW will not change restrictions this week despite making headway in the fight against COVID-1
- Just 0.057 per cent of people tested this week returning positive swabs
It follows the unveiling by Prime Minister Scott Morrison of a three-step plan agreed to by the National Cabinet to reopen most of the country by July.
Some states, including Queensland, South Australia and Tasmania have indicated they will start to ease restrictions from next week.
But in a statement, Ms Berejiklian said there would be no change to the status quo in NSW.
“As I stated earlier this week, there will be no further change to restrictions in NSW this week,” she said.
