9News understands groups of patrons allowed in the state's pubs will be reduced from 20 to 10 per booking, while large venues will only be allowed to have 300 people inside.SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA - JULY 11: Medical staff at a pop-up COVID-19 testing clinic, perform tests on drivers on July 11, 2020 in the Sydney suburb of Casula, Australia. NSW Health issued a public health alert on Friday after new confirmed COVID-19 cases in the state.
NSW pubs were first allowed to reopen in mid-May with a limit of 10 people per group booking and with no more than 50 patrons at each venue.
I think we need to have another liquor ban to discourage gatherings coz there’s no alcohol and revert back to take away only for food.
300 still seems too many for venues keep track of. Make them show something with their name and address on (and take a pic of it) or no entry.
Shouldn't be just pubs and clubs, NSW needs to go into lockdown before it's too late eh GladysB
What about stricter limits & bookings on protests?
They never obeyed the previous sets of guidelines/rules so why would you thi k they will obey the new ones?

Sydney pub worker tests positive for COVID-19, as NSW introduces $3,000 hotel quarantine feeA staff member at the Crossroads Hotel in south-west Sydney tests positive for COVID-19, while travellers returning to New South Wales will have to pay $3,000 for their fortnight stay in hotel quarantine from next week. 3000 per person. Wow. Good luck bringin ya expat family home now. So if someone flies out of Australia due to an emergency and return a month later, will they also need to pay $3000 or is it just for citizens and residents who are planning to return to Oz since the pandemic started Need some clarity pls I was surprised how many ppl are still travelling during a pandemic. Of course they should pay their hotel quarantine fee. If ppl at the start self isolated we would not need guarded quarantine.

Quick increase of COVID-19 cases in NSW a concern for health authorities | Sky News AustraliaAMA President Dr Tony Bartone says the quick increase of COVID-19 cases in Sydney is a significant concern for health authorities.\n\nThree household contacts of a man who attended a Sydney pub has tested positive to coronavirus, triggering fears of large-scale community transmission in NSW. \n\nTwo patrons who visited the Crossroads Hotel in Casula have been diagnosed after attending the venue last Friday night. \n\nThe recent outbreaks in NSW pose a worry considering the growing number of coronavirus cases in Victoria, with over 500 new cases appearing over the weekend alone. \n\nDr Bartone said abiding by the guidelines and measures which saw the nation through the first wave was the best way Australians could go about fighting the spread of the deadly virus while awaiting a possible vaccine. \n\n “Regardless of the development and time frame of the vaccine, we’re going to have to learn to live with COVID-19 in our community for many, many months and perhaps the best part of a year or more before the whole community can be immunised against COVID-19,” he said. \n\n“We’ve got to learn to live with the virus, respect its virulence, its power, its sneakiness, and never forget those key measures and guidelines which have gotten us through the first wave.”\n More leftist hype porn for mass consumption. And yet, the ignaoramii you employ, namely .rowandean & .theboltreport maintain its all a hoax. I'll follow experience & science over non substantiated propaganda any day covid19 Bolt Blot Masks now... before lockdown... 🤞🏼

Coronavirus updates LIVE: Victorian cases 'yet to peak' as NSW COVID-19 cluster in Casula grows; Australian death toll stands at 108A vaccine candidate for COVID-19 developed by researchers at the University of Queensland will start human trials this week. The trial will see 120 people, selected from 4000 volunteers, given two doses of the vaccine four weeks apart. This is testament that the Australian scientific community is among the best in the world. We should support our research sector by ensuring the vaccines are also manufactured in Australia, and the profit is returned directly to the institutions to fund future discoveries. Well done to the volunteers of covid-19 vaccine trials. You are a brave bunch of people. Fingers crossed
