COVID Melbourne hotel update

NSW Health has updated its advice for recent visitors to the Holiday Inn at Melbourne Airport, after three coronavirus cases were found there.

Health authorities are investigating suspected coronavirus transmission within the state’s hotel quarantine system at the hotel.

NSW Health said anyone who worked or stayed on any floor between January 27 and February 9 is now considered a close contact.

People in that category must get tested immediately and isolate for 14 days regardless of the result.

The previous advice was that only people who had been on the third floor were close contacts.
