It seems freedom is also bringing more Covid-19 cases in Australia's New South Wales.  

It has 804 cases today, and its seven-day rolling average continues to climb, with much of the transmission at large events.  

The state has 84 Omicron cases, a number also expected to grow. 

Australian Medical Association New South Wales Council Chair, Dr Michael Bonning told Heather du Plessis Allan it's not all bad news.   

“We have really high vaccination rates here in New South Wales, we’re not seeing an increase in cases ending up in hospital yet.”
