School reunion cluster grows to 19, as SA adjusts to life after COVID-zero

Forty years after graduating and four days after South Australia’s borders reopened, Adelaide’s Henley High School Class of 1981 gathered to celebrate.

A fellow old scholar called Mr Eustice at 8am on Tuesday to share the bad news. Two hours later, his own infection was confirmed. The majority of party attendees have been transferred to medi-hotels and Mr Eustice is awaiting confirmation this will be for 14 days. His wife has tested negative. SA Chief Public Health Officer Nicola Spurrier reported 18 new COVID-19 cases on Thursday including 16 linked to the Norwood cluster.Professor Spurrier noted the reunion had fewer than 150 guests and was within the rules. She told residents the situation was a “transitional phase” and requires a “bit of a mind shift for all of us” as the state moves from an elimination strategy to one of suppression.

“While I’m relieved by this news, my thoughts are with those South Australians who have now got COVID,” he said. “Now that the virus is in SA, it is more important than ever people get vaccinated.”

Gosh. Who would have seen ghat coming
