Adelaide business owner concerned about impact of nearby COVID-19 medi-hotel
The opening of a new dedicated COVID-19 medi-hotel in the heart of Adelaide has caused angst among some nearby residents and business owners, despite health authorities saying it poses no significant risk to the general public.
Key points:
- The Tom’s Court medi-hotel opened its doors on Monday
- Nearby residents are concerned about the location and lack of consultation
- SA Health says the hotel is well-placed to manage the risk of transmission
The Tom’s Court medi-hotel, located off Halifax Street in Adelaide’s CBD, is now open for returned travellers who test positive to COVID-19.
The hotel was commissioned by the State Government in the wake of November’s Parafield cluster, which was sparked by a COVID-19 leak from the Peppers Hotel.
