Queensland COVID cases: Cairns super yacht sparks police probe

A crew member on a luxury yacht off Queensland’s far north has tested positive for coronavirus.

But the behaviour of those on board the Lady E in allegedly failing to cooperate with health authorities has drawn rebuke and prompted a police investigation.

The 20-year-old female crew member has been been taken to hospital in Cairns after she tested positive upon the yacht’s arrival from the Maldives.
