, case numbers in metropolitan Sydney grow. Data from NSW Health shows 300 infections recorded in the City of Sydney local government area in the past week, nearly half the total recorded there during the entire Delta outbreak. Another 135 have been reported in the inner west, 184 in Bayside and 125 in Randwick.NSW Deputy Chief Health Officer Marianne Gale on Wednesday said health authorities were particularly concerned about a jump in infections in Glebe, Waterloo, Redfern and Marrickville.
But infections in the inner city are a fraction of cases records city’s west, with 1848 infections reported in Canterbury-Bankstown in the past week and 1570 in Cumberland.“While there are those 12 LGAs of concern, the rest of Sydney is not immune to COVID and this is a reminder we all still need to remain on our guard and get vaccinated,” said NSW president of the Australian Medical Association and Newtown GP Danielle McMullen.
The population data is sourced from the ABS Estimated Resident Population 2019 and may not accurately reflect the current numbers of residents. University of Sydney Students’ Representative Council president Swapnik Sanagavarapu expressed concern that international students living near the campus, which straddles the inner suburbs of Camperdown and Darlington, had experienced “administrative issues” in accessing vaccination after the university’s on-campus medical centre decided to only administer doses to Medicare cardholders.
A University of Sydney spokesperson confirmed on-site vaccinations for students, their partners and dependents were only available for Medicare-card holders at its University Health Service, but said the service had directed members of the community without a Medicare card, including international students, to book appointments through NSW Health clinics.
No amount of vaccine can crub it right now.. its just bad strategy! We just need to live like this.
this disaster was government failure..........its not fixable unfortunately
