Entire State In Strict Lockdown 15/08/21

Premier Gladys Berejiklian has backflipped on her incremental lockdown approach, announcing on Saturday afternoon the entire state will live under strict stay-at-home restrictions. Rapid antigen testing able to detect Covid-19 in less than 15 minutes will be rolled out in an aged-care facility in a Western Sydney hotspot tomorrow in a bid to keep Sydney’s most vulnerable safe in the ­latest outbreak. NRL superstar Sam Burgess says he still cares about his ex-wife Phoebe and while they “didn’t work as a married couple” their aim was to “work out as parents”. And TV host Karl Stefanovic wants to step in to help his bosses at the Nine Network retain the NRL television rights.
