These are testing times for New South Wales Premier Gladys Berejiklian.
This latest Covid outbreak is the biggest since the four-month lockdown in Victoria that started almost a year ago. Greater Sydney and environs are locked down for their third week, and Berejiklian and her treasurer Dominic Perrottet (who opposed the current one-week extension) have more than hinted it will continue beyond next weekend.
Yesterday’s new case load was 77, and the premier said she would be ‘shocked’ if it isn’t more than 100 today.
