NSW residents have been told to 'take extra care' as COVID-19 cases rise.
NSW reported 18 new COVID-19 cases on Sunday, taking the number of active cases to 99.
International arrivals in Sydney will be limited to 350 people a day under tighter COVID-19 restrictions to ensure returned travellers don't overwhelm the health system. The total number of cases associated with the Crossroads Hotel cluster is 45, while one of the new locally acquired cases attended Holy Duck! restaurant in Chippendale on the evening of 10 July. Another case visited the Anytime Fitness Gym in Merrylands on 14 July from 9pm to 10:30 pm.
"It is incredibly important the volume of returning travellers does not undo the great work of the people of NSW," Mr Ayres said in a statement on Sunday. "If you have the ability to walk, cycle or drive please take those options," he told reporters in Sydney on Sunday.
