Queensland recorded no new local COVID-19 cases overnight on Sunday, after the infectious UK strain spread outside a quarantine hotel last week.
The first patient, believed to be a super-spreader, infected a doctor at the Princess Alexandra Hospital and another guest who was staying on the same floor of Brisbane’s Hotel Grand Chancellor.

Acting Queensland Chief Health Officer Sonya Bennett said genomic testing confirmed the cases were linked and CCTV would be reviewed to see how the virus was transmitted inside the hotel.
Queensland has one new case of COVID-19, but it is likely historical and not connected to the case of a doctor at Brisbane's Princess Alexandra Hospital who tested positive, the state's health authorities say.
