All non-essential services in New South Wales will be shut down over the next two days in a drastic ramping up of the state's response to the coronavirus pandemic.
Schools will be open on Monday, Ms Berejiklian said, but flagged she would be announcing further details on whether they would continue to operate in the near future. The ramping up of the COVID-19 response came as NSW reported an additional 97 positive tests within 24 hours - the largest jump recorded in Australia so far. There is now a total of 533 cases in the state, including six of Australia's seven coronavirus-related deaths.
government in NSW. Welcome to the corona capital of Australia Sydney. I really do hope they take responsibility for this and apologise to the community.. You’d think it would be an easy one... like Japan did weeks ago quarantine all ships
There two viable cures for CV. A BRISBANE team and a French team have both come up with quick, cheap & available drugs to treat or prevent. Here is the French team:

So the shut down will be for the next two days only?
