26 April 2021 10:04am Perth is the latest Australian city to head into a snap lockdown aimed at stamping out a COVID-19 cluster resulting from another breach in CBD hotel quarantine. The three-day lockdown, covering Perth and the Peel region south of the city, comes in response to news a 54-year-old Victorian man, a returned overseas traveller, evidently contracted COVID-19 from guests in an adjoining room. After leaving quarantine he then visited several locations around the city in Perth’s first case of community transmission in more than a year. On 21 April, he then boarded a plane to Melbourne with 257 passengers and subsequently tested positive following 14 days in hotel quarantine in Perth and five days in the community.
