So, important message. The virus is not part of our locally transmitted viruses, it appears it has come from overseas, we have more work to do to work out where it has come from, but highly likely it came from possibly the hotel or possibly aircrew that of course can stay overnight, stay for a few days, before they turn around and go back overseas.
We will do some more work and report back to the community but is extremely good news for all of us in Health and the New South Wales community. I was literally just a minute or two ago about this outcome, and it is a massive relief, massive relief my point of view as Health Minister.
But we still have work to do, we still have work to determine which aircrew or person from overseas, possibly in the hotel, managed to transmit it and how to stop that. So I will work on that, but definitely not a locally transmitted virus.
