In a statement released this evening, Queensland Chief Health Officer Jeannette Young said genome sequencing results had confirmed the infection did not come from that particular variant, as had previously been expected.
But although the Delta variant had been ruled out, she said it was still important for those who had attended exposure sites to isolate."Particularly anyone who was at the Airport DFO between 4pm and 4.30pm on Saturday still needs to isolate," Dr Young said. "It's good news the case isn't the highly transmissible Delta variant, but we do still need to take every precaution."The woman initially tested negative to the virus while in hotel quarantine but returned a positive result last night.You can find out more details about how to book your vaccine
