No new local COVID-19 cases in NSW

Chief health officer Kerry Chant said on Monday the eastern suburbs man who was infected last week likely had a “fleeting” contact with an unknown person described as a missing link.

That missing link would be the intermediary between the eastern suburbs man and a returned traveller from the US who has been identified as the likely source of last week’s spread. Finding that missing link would go a long way towards easing officials’ fears that the virus may be spreading among Sydneysiders who have no idea they’re infected.

“We have tested everyone in close proximity to this gentleman the contact with the infectious person must have been very fleeting,” Dr Chant said. “So because of that we're still concerned that there may be chains of transmission in the community that are yet unrecognized.”

Going to dox anyone today dipsh1ts? newscorpaus

The low testing numbers? 💁🏻‍♀️ For a city of 5 million it’s hard to believe only around 13,000 per day have cold or ‘flu symptoms

I think that a sensible thing to do. I wouldn’t be satisfied it’s not going to flare up again and stop all the restrictions straight away

The mutant strain lays in wait around the corner

I see...

Check the local brothels, maybe he got it from there.

Media despair.

For goodness sake media, just stop stirring up shit. 'virus may be lurking in the community' really

Greater Sydney extends COVID-19 restrictions as no new local cases recordedCOVID-19 restrictions will remain until May 17 across Greater Sydney, while contact tracers scramble to identify how a man in his 50s contracted the virus.

Does this mean these individuals actually did recently arrive by air, contrary to what has been claimed? ⚡️
