Australia Covid live update: Queensland records nine new cases on first full day of lockdown; Victoria records four new cases

It is vital, anyone with any symptoms at all, it doesn’t matter where you are, because I don’t know where this virus is at the moment.

Please come forward (and get tested) because then we will be able to find those other chains of transmission which I expect are out there. And in the Sunshine Coast, please, it is particularly important that you come forward because I suspect that is where this outbreak started and then has reached a critical level where it has started to escalate and we had picked up at the escalation point. But I still think there will be cases there in the Sunshine Coast that we don’t know about. And if we don’t find them, they will continue to spread. So that is really critical.

I do not have any link between these cases that have happened in Indooroopilly and where it originally started from those two people who came into Queensland overseas with the same genome sequence.

So everyone, stay-at-home. If you can, stay home the next three days.
