NSW has recorded seven new coronavirus cases in the latest 24-hour reporting period. The state's daily test figure dropped to 8835, after NSW Health expressed concern yesterday that not enough people were coming forward for testing.

Sydney and Melbourne property prices fell the most in Australia over the June quarter, with price declines of more than 2 per cent at the height of the coronavirus pandemic.

Sydney houses dropped 2.6 per cent compared to apartments, which saw prices drop 1.4 per cent. In Melbourne house prices dropped 2.8 per cent compared to a 1 per cent decline in apartment values. However, the rental market tightened between July and August for all capital cities with the exception of Melbourne which is still tackling tough restrictions to stop the spread of coronavirus.

Latest monthly data from property research company CoreLogic recorded a fourth consecutive month of national house value falls in August, down 0.4 per cent, with Melbourne values dropping the most at 1.2 per cent. Sydney property prices declined 0.5 per cent over the same period.Announcements on the staged return of elective surgery won't be made today, but Premier Daniel Andrews has promised authorities are "very close" to finalising a plan.

The submission puts Mr Morrison at odds with Mr Andrews, who told a Victorian parliamentary hearing that it was "fundamentally incorrect to assert that there were hundreds of ADF staff on offer and somehow, someone said no". He said that authorities would not see the effect of today's easing of restrictions in regional Victoria for two weeks, and that there needed to be a passing of time to make sure all cases were accounted for.Michael Fowler

Andrew Crisp, the current Emergency Management Commissioner, told the inquiry that he was advised by Melissa Skilbeck, the former Health Department deputy secretary, that Professor Sutton would be too busy to be appointed state controller. Ms Skilbeck was stripped of her responsibilities in early July.

We heard in last week’s evidence that Professor Sutton was against the decision to not make him state controller.

Where did the virus come from? Gradually, people will know the answer. The first set of evidence:

All these “cases” and very few actual deaths. What about focusing on the positive for e.g that 95 year old man who was isolated in hospital for 5 weeks AND SURVIVED COVID. ANd what about the fact that Aussie scientists found a cure for covid but won’t release it to the public?

Report hospitalisations as well. Otherwise it’s fairly useless.

An average of 44 people die in Victorian nursing homes every day. Has anybody seen a graph that shows incremental deaths during this period?
