South Australia records jump in coronavirus cases, with 14 new infections in hotel quarantine

South Australia has recorded a significant one-day jump in coronavirus cases, with 14 new cases recorded in the last 24 hours, all of them in hotel quarantine.

SA Health said the new active cases included two girls and two boys, a man and woman in their 20s, four women in their 30s and a man in his 40s.

It said an additional three cases — a child, and a man and a woman in their 30s — were considered historical but were being added to the state’s case tally, which now stands at 719 since the pandemic began.

All of the new cases acquired COVID-19 overseas and have been in medi-hotel quarantine since their arrivals.

In all there are 32 active cases of COVID-19 in SA.

Only 285 vaccinations were administered in South Australia yesterday.
