NSW health authorities are urgently trying to track four people who may have been exposed to COVID-19 after three returned travellers at a Sydney quarantine hotel contracted the same South African strain of the virus.
It comes as Western Australia also reports two COVID-19 infections contracted in hotel quarantine.

NSW Chief Health Officer Kerry Chant said on Thursday up to 40 returned travellers and an unknown number of staff may have been exposed to the virus and health authorities were still working to track down at least four people.
