COVID-19 Diaries: A NYE View from Circular Quay Station

A masked commuter waits for a train at Circular Quay station in front of temporary hoardings that have been erected to prevent a view of last night’s New Year’s Eve fireworks. This year, NSW authorities have been at pains to block access to the public to discourage mass gatherings under the recent outbreak of COVID-19.

The fireworks went ahead despite calls for them to be called off amid fears of it being a super-spreading event.
