South Australia has three new cases of locally acquired coronavirus after a worker from a quarantine hotel infected family members.
An 80-year-old woman was diagnosed on Saturday and a woman in her 50s and man in his 60s were diagnosed on Sunday, Chief Public Health Officer Nicola Spurrier told reporters.
“One of those people works in our medi-hotels,” Prof Spurrier said.
“This is where we consider the source to be.”
Contact tracing is underway.
Prof Spurrier said the infected trio has a very large family and four relatives are showing COVID-19 symptoms with test results expected later in the day.
Contact tracing is also underway for about 90 staff and patients at the hospital who may have come into contact with the 80-year-old woman.
A fourth case of coronavirus in SA was also diagnosed in an overseas traveller on Sunday.
