Broadcaster Luke Grant says he hopes leaders around Australia – seeing as it’s Christmas – are measured in their decisions surrounding the coronavirus cluster in Sydney’s Northern Beaches.
Since Wednesday there has been 28 cases of COVID-19 detected, all but one are linked to the cluster in Sydney’s Northern Beaches.
There is also a growing number of affected venues which have been visited by positive cases including Cronulla, Riverstone and Bondi Junction.
“New South Wales has been open – with the exception of the Victorian border – I think the whole time,” Mr Grant told Sky News host Cory Bernardi.
“I just hope leaders elsewhere – because it is Christmas – just are measured.
“This is Sydney’s Northern Beaches, a couple of other areas, give us a day or two and let’s see if we can get through this without ruining Christmas and shutting down economies.”
