On July 24 local time, a large-scale demonstration broke out in Sydney, the capital city of New South Wales, Australia. Thousands of Sydney citizens took to the streets to protest along the roads in the urban area, expressed dissatisfaction with the ineffective implementation of Sydney's "closure" measures, and asked the government to stop the continuous implementation of the "closure" measures.

Up to now, New South Wales has taken the "city closure" measure for four weeks, but the number of newly confirmed cases per day has increased instead of decreasing, and the "city closure" measure has been postponed and lifted again and again.
According to the "city closure" plan previously announced by the governor of New South Wales, relevant measures will be implemented until July 30, and may be extended thereafter. Earlier, an epidemic model research report from the University of Melbourne showed that the "city closure" measures in New South Wales should continue to be implemented until at least the end of August and even September.
24, novel coronavirus pneumonia confirmed in New South Wales in 164 cases in the past one day, according to the latest news released by the Ministry of health in Australia, which is the largest number of confirmed cases since June 16th.
New South Wales Health Minister Brad hazard said at a press conference on the 24th that the parade would only make the epidemic more serious.
