COVID-19 cluster on Sydney’s Northern Beaches causes some pubs, restaurants and bars to close voluntarily
Some venues on Sydney’s Northern Beaches are so concerned about a growing local coronavirus cluster they have voluntarily closed this weekend to help contain the outbreak.
Key points:
- NSW recorded 10 new cases yesterday bringing the total cluster to 28
- Pubs, bars, clubs and churches on the Northern Beaches have closed voluntarily
- NSW Health wants local residents to wear masks in public but doctors say it should be mandatory
NSW Health Minister Brad Hazzard last night took to Twitter to thank the venues, which he said included churches, cafes, bars and all but three pubs in the region.
The development follows a rise in the number of cases linked to the Avalon cluster, after 13 new cases were reported today.
The entire state is now on high alert…
