Face masks become mandatory in Greater Sydney as thousands linked to Berala BWS cluster told to self-isolate – SBS News
From Monday, people not wearing masks inside public spaces in Sydney can be fined up to $200, amid fears of coronavirus spreading from a suburban bottleshop.
Sydneysiders who flout new mandatory mask rules from Monday risk a $200 fine as the rule becomes enforceable.
Health Minister Brad Hazzard has asked police to exercise discretion in handing out fines to those who ignore the new rules.
