MELBOURNE (Reuters) – Australia’s most populous state of New South Wales reported 262 COVID-19 infections on Sunday, down from the pandemic high of 319 cases seen on Saturday.
Neighbouring Victoria reported 11 new locally acquired coronavirus cases, as the state remains under a seven-day strict lockdown imposed earlier this week to rein in the highly infectious Delta variant. [L8N2PE0VK]
