NSW has recorded its first 14-day streak of no locally transmitted coronavirus cases since the Crossroads Hotel cluster sparked a resurgence of the virus in the state.
It marks a full two-week incubation period without community spread of the virus.
The state recorded 10 new cases in hotel quarantine in the 24 hours until 8pm Friday, bringing its total count of COVID-19 cases to 4338 since the start of the pandemic. There were 16,329 tests conducted in the reporting period.
“While there have been no new locally acquired cases in NSW for the past 14 days, we continue to encourage people to get tested, even if they display only the mildest symptoms, such as a runny nose or scratchy throat, cough, or fever,” a NSW Health statement said.
