New South Wales Chief Health Officer Dr Kerry Chant says the fact 29 out of 97 recorded COVID-19 cases were infectious while in the community is “concerning”.
“Clearly, the fact 29 cases were infectious for two or more days in the community is incredibly concerning,” Dr Chant said.
“I can’t stress to the community my absolute concern that we need to work harder at reducing mobility and reduce our interactions with others.”

She said “please do not delay” getting tested, given “this virus spreads so quickly”.
“By the time you get tested, if you’re leaving it for two or three days into that symptom onset, you’ve already impacted those most near and dear to you. Please get tested as soon as possible.”
