New South Wales is Australia's largest population state and is the epicentre of the country's current outbreak.

1351 reported, the recent run:

  • 1405, 1542, 1599, 1262, 1257, 1127, 1259

Neighbouring state Victoria is #2 in population, 514 today, first time above 500 in this current outbreak. Numbers going the wrong way.

Vaccination rates are more encouraging, Vic should today hit 70% of the eligible population having received at least one dose. NSW surpassed this initial target more than a week ago.
