Family travelling from Melbourne
A family of five travelling from Melbourne to the Gold Coast is currently in hotel quarantine. It is unclear whether the family is COVID-19 positive.
Two of the family members attended the Australian International Islamic College for one day, and as a result, the school has closed and the school children affected will need to quarantine.
All family members have been tested for COVID-19 and these results are expected to be available tomorrow.
If required, impacted families may contact the Multicultural Connect Line on 1300 079 020 for additional support.
