Sydney Airport screening enhanced after NZ COVID scare, as NSW records eighth ‘donut day’
Passenger screening protocols at Sydney Airport have been enhanced, after a probable case of COVID-19 was identified in New Zealand.
Health authorities in New Zealand are investigating a positive test result in a person who recently travelled from overseas and completed their 14 days of isolation in a facility in Auckland, before later developing symptoms.
People from New Zealand are able to travel to NSW without having to quarantine.
New Zealand’s Ministry of Health said the woman had travelled to Spain and the Netherlands before arriving in the country.
It was investigating whether she caught the virus from another returned traveller in quarantine.
