Call for Sydneysiders to Be Truthful With Contact Tracers Amid 50 New Cases New South Wales (NSW) Chief Health Officer Dr. Kerry Chant has made an impassioned plea for people to be truthful with contact tracers after the premier said the “vast majority” of Sydney’s 50 new CCP virus cases were being obstructive. “We know that everyone is human and makes poor decisions at certain times, but please don’t compound that initial mistake by not telling us the truth the first time,” Chant said. “At the moment, as we’re trying to get ahead of the spread of the virus, we haven’t got time to waste unpicking stories, going back and cross-checking and verifying.”
