She was transferred to an isolation unit at the Royal Brisbane and Women's Hospital and prior to that had been in home quarantine. The woman will be tested again in two days' time. Queensland's chief health officer, Dr Jeannette Young, said woman was not a healthcare worker and was planning to stay in Australia indefinitely. The woman was part of a family of nine that arrived, Dr Young said, though she was the only one in isolation. Dr Young said the woman and her family do not pose a risk to the community.

And now Lachlan Murdoch has belatedly joined the party. It's just a shame they didn't all speak out earlier.
