Coronavirus test results from contacts of COVID-infected Brisbane doctor expected back today, will determine if Queensland has community transmission

Test results that should show if any community transmission of COVID-19 has occurred after a doctor contracted the disease at a Brisbane hospital last week are expected as soon as today.

Tests have been carried out on about 306 potential contacts of the doctor — including staff and patients at the Princess Alexandra (PA) Hospital, and patrons of four southside venues she attended last Thursday.
