South Australian premier isolating after daughter tests positive to COVID-19

South Australian Premier Steven Marshall is in isolation after his daughter tested positive for COVID-19."I have gone straight to get a PCR test at one of our many testing sites and will undertake my seven-day isolation period, as so many South Australians are also doing," Mr Marshall said in a statement on Saturday.

"I have no symptoms and am feeling well. I will continue to chair the daily COVID Ready Committee meetings and continue to lead our pandemic response."Earlier the state reported 4274 new COVID-19 cases and five deaths, a 13 per cent rise on on the previous day and amid a 20 per cent rise in testing.About 80 per cent of ICU patients were unvaccinated, despite the unvaccinated making up only 7.3 per cent of the population.

But Mr Marshall said it was pleasing that 270 community members in Amata, in the APY Lands, had tested negative after two cases were reported there earlier. Another 30 results are expected soon. Mr Marshall confirmed aged care and disability workers will join healthcare workers in needing a third vaccine dose to be considered fully vaccinated.He warned the government was considering applying the third-dose mandate to other workforces, including childcare.

Hate the brainless Morrison government for playing its cards to pieces. The island was under control. Suddenly let go of the virus to harm the people will be judged by the people. He now has 59 deaths on his hands. Maybe ten thousand in the future. The bill will be settled.

Well Australia is bowling tomorrow so he should magically get better
