No change on the Diamond Princess
Authorities have confirmed two people evacuated to Darwin from the Diamond Princess cruise ship yesterday have tested positive for coronavirus.
A 24-year-old South Australian woman who tested positive for the virus is being flown from Darwin to Royal Adelaide Hospital to be held in isolation, health authorities said.
The woman tested negative for the virus in Yokohama before flying to Australia, but alerted health authorities of flu-like symptoms on her arrival in Darwin.
South Australia's chief public health officer Nicola Spurrier described the woman's "mild symptoms" as including a sore throat and runny nose.
The confirmed cases come after six people were isolated after presenting minor symptoms on arrival at Darwin airport on Thursday morning.
The 164 people evacuated from the cruise ship will spend two weeks at a quarantine facility at Howard Springs, 30 kilometres south-east of Darwin's CBD.
