At least 100 extra police officers will patrol the streets of southwest Sydney to ensure compliance with health orders that no one paid any attention to at ground zero of this outbreak – in the affluent Eastern Suburbs.
The crackdown comes after Premier Gladys Berejiklian announced 38 new cases yesterday, after a fortnight of this cluster pinballing around Bondi until it made its way into the ethnic communities out west.

The State Government and NSW police have immediately changed their tone, now that the virus has made its way into the Canterbury-Bankstown, Fairfield and Liverpool council areas.
While they could never have possibly spoken to Bondi this way, for fear of a couple noisy columns from SMH journalists – it seems that putting the boot into the wogs makes everyone feel like they are finally taking this seriously.
There had previously been hints that the region could soon be subject to stricter lockdown restrictions – namely because no one in the media or political classes live out there, and because of this, the state and federal government has no problem talking down to ‘these people’.

The police response will include additional general duties officers as well as mounted police, the dog squad and PolAir surveillance.
