    Health Nerd Retweeted NSW Health

    19 new cases after 18 yesterday is a pretty good sign that we're getting on top of this, although too soon to be sure of anything #nswcovid #covidnswhttps://twitter.com/NSWHealth/status/1409678475451981826 …

        effects of the LD (other than perhaps greater testing urgency) have yet to kick in yet I imagine

        I want to see the numbers in 5 days, as that will star to show the effects of the lockdown. We are probably seeing the start of the lga limiting orders in these numbers.

        Even tomorrow will be 5/6 days since restrictions started to ramp up. Any new cases would have been wearing a mask, in isolation, following lockdown rules, or all of the above.

        Still got ~1/2 with infectious time in the community, so not out of the woods (but lockdown reduces community contacts, so less influential).

        I agree with this. Most days, there is at least 50% of people not in isolation for full period, plus higher if you include partly in isolation. Until that goes down to 1 or 2, there will still be the potential for spread.

        Not sure about that when only 7 of those cases were quarantining during their infectious period.

        Your silly strategy is in tatters, no exit door in sight - but I guess you can live with well with borders permanently closed?
