COVID-Ready Road Map

The Hon. R.P. WORTLEY (15:19): I seek leave to make a brief explanation before asking a question of the Minister for Health and Wellbeing regarding health.

Leave granted.

The Hon. R.P. WORTLEY: The document circulated at yesterday's press conference said vaccinated South Australians need at least 15 minutes face-to-face contact with a COVID-19 case to be a close contact. However, the contact tracing matrix provided for businesses revealed two ways that vaccinated people can end up in quarantine after just one minute of contact if only one person was wearing a mask. This has created confusion about which advice to the community and business is correct. My question to the minister is: after 23 November, will some fully vaccinated South Australians need to quarantine after being in the same place as a COVID-19 case for as little as 60 seconds?

The Hon. S.G. WADE (Minister for Health and Wellbeing) (15:21): I will take the honourable member's question on notice and seek advice from the public health team.
