Authorities are concerned there may be a spike in cases as soon as next week - the coronavirus generally has an incubation period of six to 10 days - due to the relaxation of social-distancing measures that began on Monday.

Another of the 10 cases is a staff member at an aged care facility in Reservoir in Melbourne’s north, which is now in lockdown.

Dr van Diemen said guests will see out their quarantine at another hotel because so many hotel staff members at Rydges had been placed in self isolation."At this point we haven’t determined the precise cause of the outbreak, we know that it is linked to other cases in returned travellers but we are still undertaking investigations as to how this particular cohort of staff were exposed," Dr van Diemen said on Tuesday morning.

Dr van Diemen said based on the incubation period of the coronavirus, there may be a spike in cases leading from relaxed social distancing measures, as soon as next week."We sincerely hope that is not the case and we really encourage people to get tested as soon as they get symptoms."

More fear mongering from a desperate media n so called health professionals who are scared to loose power n control
