澳洲新闻 (ABC新闻快递) 澳大利亚疫情反弹 维州一个月无新增记录被打破（在线收听）

Australia's unpredictable 2020 is set to end in uncertainty as New South Wales wakes up to fresh restrictions. New South Wales will ring in the new year with tougher limits on home visitors an outdoor gatherings after recording 18 new COVID-19 infections yesterday. A new cluster in the city's inner west has authorities fearing those numbers will continue to rise.

In Victoria, contact-tracers have worked through the night after three new COVID-19 infections broke the state's 2-month zero streak. 40 close contacts are already in isolation. Authorities believe the cases are connected to the Greater Sydney outbreak. Victoria will tonight shut its border to Wollongong and the Blue Mountains in a bit to keep numbers down. And the WA government has warned that while travelling — into the state from Victoria remained the same for now, it won't hesitate to make changes to the border if necessary.

Western Australia currently allows quarantine-free travel with Victoria, but that's predicated on there having been no cases in the community for 28 days. When New South Wales recorded community cases, WA shut its border in a matter of days.

And the South Australian police commissioner says South Australians should strongly reconsider travel to New South Wales in the wake of the latest cases. Police are also advising south Australians already in New South Wales to consider returning home as soon as possible.

新南威尔士州民众一早醒来就面临新的限制措施，这使澳大利亚不可预测的2020年以不确定性告终。新南威尔士州昨天记录了18例新增新冠肺炎病例，计划在新的一年对家庭访客和户外聚会实行更严格的限制。该市中西部地区出现新的聚集性疫情，这使有关部门担心确诊病例还会继续增加。

维多利亚州负责追踪密接者的工作人员通宵工作，因为该州新增了3例新冠肺炎病例，打破该州连续两个月零感染的记录。目前，40名密切接触者已经被隔离。有关部门认为这些病例与大悉尼地区的疫情有关。维多利亚州将于今晚关闭其与卧龙岗和蓝山的边界线，以降低感染人数。西澳大利亚州政府警告称，虽然从维州进入该州的规定目前保持不变，但如果有必要，该州将毫不犹豫地对边界规定进行修改。

西澳大利亚州目前允许与维多利亚州进行免检疫旅行，但这是因为维州已有28天无新增病例。新南威尔士州报告社区病例后，西澳州在几天内便关闭了边界。

南澳大利亚往上警察局长表示，在最新病例出现后，南澳民众应该强烈地重新考虑前往新南威尔士州的旅行。警方还建议已经在新南威尔士州的南澳人考虑尽快回家。
