Berejiklian said the two deaths include a woman in her 70s and a woman in her 30s with no pre-existing conditions.
"If anybody think this is a disease just affecting older people, please think again," she said.
"Again, I want to extend my heartfelt condolences to those families, their loved ones who are grieving today, but please note that younger people without pre-existing conditions can also fall victim to this cruel disease."
Of the locally acquired cases, 87 are linked to a known case or cluster - 71 are household contacts and 16 are close contacts - and the source of infection for 54 cases is under investigation.
