Legislative Council Fifty-Fourth Parliament, Second Session (54-2) 54 2 Parliament of South Australia Legislative Council published Question Time COVID-19 Omicron COVID-19 Omicron The Hon. F. PANGALLO Legislative Council COVID-19 Omicron The Hon. F. PANGALLO (15:25): I thank the minister for his response. Has Omicron been detected in South Australia? The Hon. S.G. WADE Legislative Council Minister for Health and Wellbeing COVID-19 Omicron The Hon. S.G. WADE (Minister for Health and Wellbeing) (15:25): I am sorry, Mr President, I did omit to respond to that particular part of the honourable member's question. As far as I know, Omicron has not been detected in South Australia. In relation to these particular cases, can I indicate whether or not they are Omicron? I can't because we haven't got that information and genomic testing, from my understanding, takes 24 hours or so. In relation to this case, as I said, the CDCB is operating on the theory that it was transmitted by interstate travellers also attending the same event. I don't want to read too much into that statement, but that implies to me that they were not international travellers, that they were not people who had come back and had been under some sort of quarantine arrangement.
