NSW COVID-19 Restrictions Ease To Allow Fully Vaccinated People To Gather Outdoors In Small Groups

SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA - SEPTEMBER 13: People gather to picnic at Centennial Park on September 13, 2021 in Sydney, Australia. COVID-19 restrictions have eased for people in NSW who are fully vaccinated, with up to five people allowed to gather outdoors. The eased restrictions only apply to people who don't live in the 12 local government areas of concern and have received two doses of a COVID-19 vaccine. NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian has outlined a roadmap out of the current statewide lockdown, with a range of restrictions to be eased when 70% of the state's eligible population are fully vaccinated. These freedoms will only be restored for the fully vaccinated. (Footage by Brendon Thorne/Getty Images)
