South-west Sydney buffet restaurant closes; attendees at three NSW pubs told to self-isolate. Follow our live coronavirus coverage:

NSW Opposition Leader Jodi McKay has said it is "hugely concerning" that one of the reasons Health Minister Brad Hazzard cited for not making masks compulsory in the state on 2GB earlier this morning was the possibility of demand exceeding supply.

Ms McKay said Mr Hazzard's direction that people should "definitely wear" masks on public transport contradicted the current NSW Health advice that it is only strongly recommended. Ms McKay accused the government of not being confident enough in the state's stockpile of masks to mandate wearing them. “From a purely public health point of view that is not supported,” Deputy Commissioner Steve Gollschewski told reporters on Thursday.He warned that though police were looking at “every legal action we’ve got” to stop the event from happening, such action had failed to stop people turning up to events in other states and protesters would face arrest if they attempted to block traffic.
