A Wurtulla man has been accidentally taken into the COVID-19 ward of the Sunshine Coast University Hospital.

The hospital confirmed there was a mix up with the electronic tasking system, which meant a patient was incorrectly taken to the reception area of the respiratory ward instead of where he was meant to go. The hospital says the man wasn’t in contact with COVID-19 patients.
