Of course he was.   

163 cases yesterday so it's an improvement.

A woman aged in her 30s is one of two new COVID-19 deaths recorded in NSW with the state confirming 141 new locally acquired cases.

A woman in her late 30s from the Sydney CBD who had no pre-existing conditions died at Royal Prince Alfred Hospital overnight and a woman in her 70s from south-west Sydney died at Campbelltown Hospital.

Thirty-eight of the new cases were in the community while infectious and a further 24 cases were in the community for part of their infectious period.

NSW Health said 54 cases remained unlinked to known cases.

Premier Gladys Berejiklian said yesterday's anti-lockdown protest in Sydney's CBD "broke her heart".

"Millions and millions of people across our state are doing the right thing, and it just broke my heart that people had such a disregard for their fellow citizens," she said.

"Yesterday could have been a setback, only time will tell."

Ms Berejiklian said the whole state was frustrated about the lockdown and everyone has had to make sacrifices but that does not justify the "disgusting" demonstration yesterday.

She said anyone who feels they have "slipped through the cracks" should reach out to ServiceNSW as her government "fought hard" for the personal and business financial support available.

She said her government was still pushing for more financial relief from the federal government.

"We are having conversations with the federal government on an ongoing basis, let me assure you of that."

NSW Health's Jeremy McAnulty said most of the cases were still in the five local government areas (LGAs) of Fairfield (34 cases), Canterbury-Bankstown (30), Cumberland (24), Blacktown (19) and Liverpool (12).

An outbreak linked to a gathering of 50 grieving family members in Pendle Hill has now grown to 28 cases.

"We have been working with community leaders in that area to make sure that people in that gathering are isolated and getting tested," Dr McAnulty said.

More than 102,000 people were tested which is a new state record.

There are currently 141 COVID-19 cases admitted to hospital, with 43 people in intensive care, 18 of whom require ventilation.

Of the 43 people in intensive care, 42 have not been vaccinated.

More to come.

Patient puzzle

Yes, I'm sure a lot of people would like to know the answer to that question.

Especially the families of the people who have died from Covid so far as well as the owners of the many small businesses who are on the verge of financial ruin (if they haven't already closed) plus the thousands or tens of thousands of workers who have no income at the moment due to the lockdowns (but, needless to say, the bills keep coming in).

I wouldn't be holding my breath waiting for answers, of course.

I see.

Gordon, it's thanks to people like you our city's in the mess it's in. We saw you, running around causing mayhem with those people, it's appalling.

While decent people were isolating at home, your crowd were running amok.

I do hope you're pleased with yourself.

The Muslims are still spreading the disease in the West but i think the Army have moved in.

They need to put a ring of steel around the Muslims outside of prayer times and eid festival times etc, they think a ghost on flying donkeys is far more important than the health of the wider community, they might have to bring in the military.
