Queensland Health Minister Yvette D’Ath to undergo COVID testing for sore throat

The Queensland Health Minister will be tested for COVID-19.

Yvette D’Ath has developed a sore throat on Wednesday, Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk said.

The minister was absent from a morning press briefing on the latest developments in the state’s COVID situation.

“The Health Minister is following exactly her own advice,” Palaszczuk said.

“And I encourage everyone else, if you have any symptoms as well, to please do the same and go and get a test.”
