South Australian coronavirus cases have surged in the past 24 hours, with the state’s total now sitting at 134.

There have been 34 cases of COVID-19 diagnosed since Sunday, ranging from people in their 20s through to people in their 70s.

The increase is the largest since the coronavirus outbreak began.

SA Health’s Dr Nicola Spurrier says there are currently no admissions into intensive care in South Australia.

Spurrier says there is still no indication of community transmission in the state.

“We are in a very good place, but we need to remain there,’ Spurrier said.

On Monday, police commissioner Grant Stevens revealed more than 50 police had been placed into self-isolation as a precaution.

He says the quarantined officers had either returned from overseas or had direct contact with someone who had recently been overseas.

Testing expanded

On Monday, the premier revealed South Australia’s COVID-19 testing parameters will be expanded to include interstate travellers.

The announcement comes in response to the state’s border shutdown, announced on Sunday, which comes into effect at 4pm on Tuesday.

On Monday, Steven Marshall revealed that those recently returned from interstate who are experiencing respiratory symptoms can now qualify for testing at SA Health facilities.

Testing was previously restricted to close contacts of existing cases and those recently returned from overseas.

However, the premier warned against over-testing from those without symptoms.

“We cannot be testing the ‘worried well’, we must reserve these testing capabilities,” Marshall said.

The virus has now reached regional parts of SA, with a confirmed case in Whyalla.
