SYDNEY

The fully vaccinated person visited a busy shopping centre in Sydney while likely infectious, officials said. All passengers on the person’s flight were asked to self-isolate for 14 days regardless of their vaccination status.

The additional case brings Australia’s total number of infections with the new variant to six. But it is the first case where the person appeared to be active in the community. All other cases have been in quarantine and are asymptomatic or display very mild symptoms.
