Western Australia became the latest state to impose tighter curbs on travel from New South Wales and its state capital, which posted a record 390 new infections Friday.
McGowan said the measures — which are more restrictive than many international borders — were “tough” but “entirely fair”. There is growing anger at Sydney’s failure to bring its seven-week-old outbreak under control, as cases spread to the countryside and across state borders.More than 10 million Australians are in lockdown as the Sydney cluster — which started with an overseas flight crew — grew to 6,874 cases.
