James Kondilios Death
In the most recent reporting period, he was one of six people who died from COVID. The others, two from Lake Macquarie and three from Western Sydney, were in their 60s, 80s, and 90s.
The number of patients admitted to the hospital has grown to 1,609, up from 1,491, with 131 in intensive care and 38 requiring ventilation.
Despite the federal government’s looser standards for PCR testing, the rate of testing in NSW is increasing.
There were 111,231 COVID swabs taken yesterday, up from 108,844 the day before.
After the state registered 34,994 new cases, NSW Premier Dominic Perrottet has instructed companies not to make employees take a COVID test before returning to work.
The NSW government has issued more mobile notifications and electronic road signs to inform people about the new laws, which eliminate the need for a PCR test when a quick antigen test results in a positive result (RAT).
People should avoid PCR testing unless they are sick, have a close contact, or have been instructed to do so by health authorities, according to NSW Health alerts issued out yesterday.
People who have a positive RAT test will no longer be forced to obtain a PCR test, truck drivers will no longer be required to receive frequent testing, and overseas arrivals will no longer be required to undergo repeated tests, according to the national cabinet.
Mr Perrottet believes that too many people are still being tested unnecessarily, and that businesses should stop requiring their employees to take a PCR test before returning to work.
