One new COVID-19 case in Sydney after state 26 days virus-free
A hotel worker in Sydney has tested positive for coronavirus. She was employed by two hotels in Darling Harbour, one of which is a quarantine hotel for returned international travellers.
It is the first case of COVID-19 in the state for 26 days.
New South Wales Health is asking anyone who worked at the hotels on these dates to get tested and self-isolate.
It is unclear how other states will respond to the announcement, with New South Wales open to all states besides Western Australia, which was due to ease restrictions on the 8th of December.
