'Sydney could be facing a "COVID Christmas" for the third year in a row as a
fresh wave of the virus pushes through the community, according to New South
Wales Health.

Its data showed COVID is currently circulating at moderate levels in the state,
but wastewater surveillance, emergency department presentations, and outbreaks
in aged care facilities suggest the virus is on the rise again.

"It's certainly higher than it was a couple of months ago and has been slowly
increasing over the past few weeks," NSW Health's Director of Communicable
Diseases Christine Selvey told ABC News.

"Nobody has a crystal ball but the modelling that we do have suggests that the
increase will continue up through and into December,' she said.'
