NSW reported 89 new local coronavirus cases on Tuesday, as Premier Gladys Berejiklian foreshadowed an announcement about the future of Sydney’s lockdown as early as this afternoon.
The slight drop in daily cases came as it was announced a second death had been linked to the outbreak. The eastern suburbs man, aged in his 70s, died on Monday.
NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian said the bulk of the spread had occurred in south-west Sydney. However, there was seeding in other areas of the city.
