Good morning everyone, my name is Mostafa Rachwani and I will be guiding you through the news this morning.
We’re expecting another big day of press conference again today, especially after New South Wales recorded 31 cases yesterday, the most in a single day since the outbreak began on 16 June.
Dr Kerry Chant, the CHO, has warned that the situation might get worse before it gets better, so we’ll be keeping an eye on case numbers today.
We’re also expecting to hear from Queensland today, who recorded three new cases yesterday, and with parts of Greater Brisbane waking up in an extended lockdown.
The premier, Annastacia Palaszczuk, announced the extension, which is scheduled to run until 6pm tonight. Let’s hope nothing changes until then.
Otherwise, we’ll be here for whatever else may emerge and, after a wild week, you really cannot predict what will emerge, so let’s get stuck in.
