Sydney's Lockdown Extended For Another 4 Weeks.

Thursday, 29 July 2021 09:35

By Ciara Plunkett @plunkettciara

177 new infections were reported there yesterday

Sydney's lockdown has been extended for another month, despite reports of vaccine stockpiles.

Lockdown in the Australian city will last until August 28th, after 177 new infections were reported yesterday.

It's believed the country has over 3 million doses of the AstraZeneca vaccine stored, however the risk of blood clots from the jab has slowed the rate of innoculation.

Sydney reported its biggest daily rise in COVID-19 infections since the pandemic began, forcing authorities to increase police powers to shut down businesses not complying with lockdown measures https://t.co/42t3DNbI4S pic.twitter.com/MtY25yUhFP
