Spring in NSW - back to school: • jumper • hat • mask • soap Happy to have some protection against sun, wind, pollen, smoke, covid (& gastro) & looking forward to sharing holiday stories with classmates instead of viruses!
NSW Health is encouraging the community to stay on alert for symptoms of gastroenteritis, with testing and hospital data showing a significant rise in cases in recent weeks across the state.
