Six new Delta cases linked to Brisbane high school student prompts three-day lockdown | ABC News

South-east Queensland has entered a snap three-day lockdown as of 4:00pm today after six new locally acquired cases of the Delta COVID variant were reported. All are linked to a 17-year-old high school student from Brisbane's inner-west who tested positive on Thursday. The girl's two parents and two siblings have tested positive, as has a medical student who tutors the girl. A staff member from Ironside State School, which one of the siblings attends, has also tested positive. Chief Health Officer Dr Jeannette Young said whole genome sequencing had linked the cluster stemming from the school student to two people who had returned from overseas and were in hotel quarantine.
