Six people with COVID die in SA, 3,023 new cases recorded

SA Premier Steven Marshall said the fact that 6,906 people had recovered from COVID-19 in the past 24 hours, compared with the 3,023 new infections, was a further indication that the state was "at or about the peak".

"These numbers do bob around a bit but it is now significantly under our seven day average in South Australia," he said.The state now has 31,582 active cases.Mr Marshall said the number of SA Health staff in isolation had decreased significantly to 416 COVID-positive staff with 614 in total furloughed.

South Australians have been encouraged to work from home for the past month, but the government will be "slowly encouraging people to return to work" from January 27 with 25 per cent of workers to return to the office initially. Workers will be encouraged to wear masks, socially distance themselves from others, and eat meals outdoors where possible.Mr Marshall said new modelling shows "no noticeable jump whatsoever" in case numbers was expected when schools return under the hybrid model of mixed face-to-face and remote learning for the first couple of weeks of term.

I don't get marshall_steven school plan. Teachers of a pv+ student & students of a pv+ teacher, to monitor & continue going to school School staff 15 mins face-to-face contact with other staff w/o masks MUST isolate for 7 days Surely the classroom is the same as school staff?

That's 6 more preventable deaths...had the Fed Gov't actually did their job... They wouldn't allow that many drownings....
