NSW Health is scrambling to contain the impact of five new locally acquired COVID-19 cases as concerns are raised about the nation’s borders just a week before Christmas.

The state broke its 12-day streak without locally acquired coronavirus cases on Dec. 16, after a Sydney airport driver was confirmed to have the virus and two mystery cases popped up on the northern beaches.
