While it was a drop from 35 cases in the previous day, the number of people who were in the community while infectious is still alarming health experts.
SummitCare confirmed the latest infection in a female resident at its Baulkham Hills facility on Tuesday afternoon, saying she was the wife of another resident who tested positive last week. "The latest case takes the total number of positive cases to six residents, all of whom are now off site and showing no symptoms of the virus at this stage."Chief Health Officer Dr Kerry Chant has previously flagged that the lockdown's success will be judged on this metric.
Meanwhile, it's been revealed that 163 Year 12 boarders from Sydney's St Joseph's College received their first dose of the Pfizer vaccine in May, despite younger people not being eligible. "Through an error, the wider group of boarders in Year 12, a total of 163 students, were also vaccinated. All Indigenous people aged 16 to 49 are eligible for vaccination as they have a higher risk of acquiring, and developing severe disease from, COVID-19. Meanwhile, modellers, economists and public health experts from the Australian National University and University of Melbourne have crunched the numbers and found longer lockdowns benefit the economy in the longer term.

It appears it wasn’t just the private school boys given access to Pfizer
One week? That’s optimistic of them. Is that like the time GladysTheSuperSpreader said kids under 12 can’t spread the virus? One week won’t solve this shit show.
Any mental health experts in there?
Nice to see Gladys adopting the Dan model.
ABC & SBS entirely complicit in parroting Fed & NSW LNP narrative. You're dealing with criminals but just lay down and squeak instead of SCREAMING for vaccines and to stop tens-of-thousands arriving, demanding military run remote quarantine, roar for resignations. VERY poor.
Gladys start being a leader not just a liberal auspol
