New South Wales has recorded just 7 new coronavirus cases overnight.

But Health Minister Brad Hazzard said that the low number may be because many GPs gave been closed for Easter, and few tests have been done.

“We can’t get excited about that result.”

840 tests were conducted yesterday - far dawn from the daily average of 3000-4000.

NSW has a total of 2854 cases. 141777 people have been tested.

The health minister made it clear that young people were still a cause for concern.

42 per cent of all people who have been diagnosed in the state are under the age of 40.

Speaking directly to those in the age group, the minster said: “You are as vulnerable as any part of the community.”

More to come.
