I’m in the Blue Mountains at the moment, which is considered Greater Sydney. On Wednesday a limo driver was diagnosed with the Delta strain of COVID. He was 60 years old and part of his job was driving around international flight crews and he wasn’t vaccinated nor had been doing the required daily saliva tests. So gjge there.
But anyway, the reason I’m poasting is that he gave is to another guy at a shopping mall and CCTV recorded only a fleeting contact, where they passed within about a foot of each other briefly. This Delta strain is good at getting passed on via incidental contact.
We’re due to fly home tomorrow night (Sun morning US time). Crossing fingers that the contact tracers got this under control. If a mystery case pops up, SA will probably require us to 14 day quarantine when we get back.
