NSW remains on Amber alert. What was removed was the mask additions that had been directed and required on top of Amber alert. It is likely that NSW will wait for 2 incubation periods of no locally acquired cases before moving down to green.

So risk phase for NSW healthcare facilities remains on Amber. Risk escalation framework and link to Dashboard can be found here:

Hi Folks,

does anyone know if NSW health have transitioned to Green or are we still on amber alert. Given over the weekend it has been reported and today no community transmission for 15 day, I cannot see anything on the NSW health website only for community. Would appreciate clarification.

Many thanks
Jayne
