Single Sydneysiders left out amid intimate partner rule

Sydney's lockdown has been especially difficult for those living alone and unable to nominate someone to visit unless they’re considered “intimate”. During Victoria’s 112-day lockdown last year, a singles social bubble was introduced, allowing people to nominate one family member or friend to visit for companionship. Currently in Sydney only couples can visit each other at home, but any two people from different households are allowed to meet for exercise in open areas and both must live within 10 kilometres of each other. Premier Gladys Berejiklian has hinted she is considering ways to resolve the issue. Via news.com.au — Australia’s leading news site https://www.news.com.au
