Adelaide Airport is the site of a new coronavirus outbreak after six Qantas baggage staff tested positive for the disease.

As many as 100 workers who have come into contact with the group will be forced to self isolate and a flight was sent back because there were no staff

available to service the aircraft. Health officials are asking anyone who has passed through the airport over the past 48 hours to wipe down their bags.
