882 new COVID-19 cases for Sydney / NSW (Australia's largest population city and state)

Australia's epicentre of the surge in infections is Sydney and New South Wales state.

From neighbouring state Victoria earlier:

• Coronavirus - Australia's 2nd largest population state reports a steady new case count

The last couple of weeks or so in NSW:

• 390, 466, 415, 478, 452, 633, 681, 644, 825, 830, 818, 753, 919, 1029, and today: 882

Onto something a little more encouraging ...

• The total number of vaccines administered in NSW is now 6.415m

Also earlier:

• Australia is beginning its transition to living with the virus

Reports from sources now that NSW Health is not going to be reporting the number of linked/unlinked cases or their isolation status at 11am each day.

Say those figures are not a meaningful representation of case investigations.

Huh ....
