2,482 cases, the most daily infections in any Oz state/ territory since covid started. They may look at changing rules about mask wearing.

likely omicron.
How many have died? Case numbers are a poor metric, all that matters is how many are in hospital and number of deaths.

From the link:
"New South Wales has recorded 2482 new Covid-19 cases, the most daily infections reported by any Australian state or territory since the pandemic began.
Health authorities announced the national daily case record on Saturday from 137,149 tests, beating the previous mark of 2297 set by Victoria on October 14.
The state also recorded one further virus-related death in the 24 hours to 8pm.
The recent spike in case numbers, up from 260 on December 7, has yet to translate into more intensive care patients."
