Cafes, restaurants, gyms and hair salons in Sydney reopened for fully vaccinated customers on Monday after nearly four months of a Covid lockdown, as the state of New South Wales crossed its target of fully vaccinating over 70% of its population, a move that signals the start of Australia’s new strategy of living with the virus in areas where vaccination rates are high....

On Monday, New South Wales reported 496 new Covid-19 cases, significantly below last month’s peaks of over 1,500 but Perrottet warned that infection rates will rise as Sydney residents return to work. Despite concerns about another spike in cases, Perrottet said that infection and hospitalization rates in the state remained lower than what had been predicted by modeling.

The state’s border with neighboring Queensland will continue to remain shut as the north-western state only has a vaccination rate of 52% at the moment.“Enjoy the moment, enjoy it with your family and friends,” Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison told Sydney residents during a press conference. “Today is a day so many have been looking forward to - a day when things we take for granted, we will celebrate.”62.42%.
