Experts scramble as Russian COVID-19 strain hits Queensland – 7NEWS.com.au
There are fears a coronavirus “superspreader” is in the state, with the health minister trying to track down a number of people.
The Queensland government has reported seven new COVID-19 cases in hotel quarantine amid concerns that a virus superspreader is in the state.
