Two new coronavirus cases in NSW are returned overseas travellers

Two new cases were diagnosed in the 24 hours to 8pm on Monday and both were returned travellers, who are in hotel isolation.

However, the number of people being tested was once again well down on the levels health officials want to see.

A total of 6381 tests were reported, following 6353 in the previous 24 hours.

"NSW Health thanks the community for all they have done towards reducing COVID-19 numbers and continues to ask people to remain vigilant and come forward for testing immediately if symptoms like a runny nose, scratchy throat, cough or fever appear," a statement said.
