"Fingers crossed we get there this week. Thanks to everyone for sticking with the harsh restrictions & putting community ahead of self-interest.
"Path forward is: get numbers & positivity down so we're out of community transmission, build test/trace/isolate/support to manage & contain outbreaks, guard against re-importation of infections from travel & try to re-open schools & as much of domestic economy as possible," she said.
