“This is the case acquired in Byron Bay and announced yesterday morning,” NSW chief health officer Dr Jeremy McAnulty said on Thursday.
The infectious person attended the same venue as a hen’s party in Byron Bay where positive cases in Queensland were recorded. It was the first local case of COVID-19 in NSW since March 17. That case was linked to a security guard who caught the virus from a quarantine hotel. More than 20,000 tests were recorded in NSW through to 8pm on Wednesday, many of which were done in the Byron Bay region through pop-up testing clinics.
“We thank the community, particularly those in northern NSW, for coming forward for testing in large numbers,” Dr McAnulty said.

Reporting absence of news is not news - it's lazy journalism. How about reporting on the Premier's egregious breaches laid bare in the Government Grants Inquiry?
...so the canned the Blues Music Festival, makes sense.
