The Australian COVID outbreak has expanded into another city, with Alice Springs now in lockdown

Alice Springs has been ordered into lockdown today despite no new cases being recorded in the Northern Territory.

Chief Minister Michael Gunner announced the Central Australian city will go into lockdown for 72 hours. . 

Mr. Gunner said the decision to lock down Alice Springs was prompted by a man from the Tanami mine site who spent time at Alice Springs Airport on June 25.

The man arrived at the airport via a charter flight on Friday morning and remained at the airport between 9:00 am and 3.50 pm.

The man was tested for COVID-19 on June 26 after returning to Adelaide. The result was not positive, but the man has since developed symptoms while in isolation and four of his household contacts have now contracted COVID-19.
