South Australia records just one new coronavirus case but cluster still ‘very dangerous’
South Australian Premier Steven Marshall says there have been no cases of community transmission from Adelaide’s coronavirus outbreak — and that all known cases so far have been traced to close contacts.
Key points:
- One new coronavirus case has been recorded in South Australia
- Police have identified the man who lied to contact tracers
- SA Health has been unable to get in touch with 40 close contacts of the cluster
South Australia has reported one new case in the past 24 hours in a close contact and is still expecting more cases from the Parafield cluster, with a total of 26 so far.
About 5,400 people linked to the outbreak are in quarantine, but authorities are struggling to reach 40 close contacts.
