SYDNEY
New South Wales (NSW) could ease more restrictions in Sydney a week earlier than planned on Oct 18 as Australia's most populous state races towards its 80 per cent double-dose vaccination target, the government said yesterday.
The south-eastern state is expected to hit the mark over the weekend, beating forecasts, and officials previously promised to relax further restrictions on vaccinated residents on the first Monday after reaching that milestone.
"If we hit 80 per cent, we have always said it will be the Monday following,” state Premier Dominic Perrottet told ABC Radio.
