File photoNew South Wales has recorded 35 new locally acquired Covid-19 cases as Sydney reaches the halfway point of its 14-day lockdown. "Whilst as predicted the number of cases are going up, we're seeing a greater proportion of those cases in isolation which is exactly what we want to see," Ms Berejiklian said on Saturday. The numbers come after NSW Health identified 35 possible exposure sites on Friday evening. However, visitors from Brisbane and Moreton Bay must remain at home, as must anyone in the Greater Sydney area. The lockdown for Greater Sydney and surrounds is due to end on July 9.
