As COVID-19 is officially labelled a pandemic, New South Wales health authorities say confirmed cases in the state continue to rise.

The number of coronavirus cases in New South Wales, Australia's hardest-hit state, has jumped to 77 overnight after theWhile the majority of confirmed cases were contracted overseas or had close relationships to other people with COVID-19, NSW Chief Health Officer Kerry Chant warned that there were a number of cases in the Ryde-Hornsby area of Sydney where authorities were unable to determine the source of the virus.

"I also want to let our citizens know there is no need to panic. There's no need to massively change what you are doing, but it is not business as usual," she said. "The vast majority of people, the overwhelming majority of people who even contract the virus, can be treated at home safely and don't ... need extreme medical intervention any stretch."
