South Australian health authorities are "concerned" with the increasing number of active COVID-19 cases and are now in talks with the federal government about the number of overseas arrivals it can handle.
There are 30 active coronavirus cases in the state, but there remains no community transmission.
The last time the state had this many cases was just before the Parafield cluster, according to SA Health's chief public health officer Nicola Spurrier.
