Man who allegedly escaped hotel quarantine and went to SA pub charged with COVID breach

An investigation has found flaws in South Australia's medi-hotel security protocols, which allowed an international arrival to leave hotel quarantine for eight hours and attend a nearby pub and fast food outlet last week.


The 33-year-old New South Wales man, who arrived on a Singapore repatriation flight on August 3, has been arrested and charged.


SA Police said that just after 10:00pm on Thursday night, the man left his medi-hotel room and used a fire escape to get to the basement car park, where he was questioned by police.
