Queensland Health is conducting whole genome sequencing to understand a new case of COVID-19, after a student from Brisbane's Indooroopilly State High School tested positive to the virus.
The 17-year-old female resides in the adjacent suburb of Taringa, but very little other information is known at this stage and Health Minister Yvette D'Ath has urged people to keep an eye out for updates.
"She became unwell yesterday and overnight her result has come back positive," D'Ath said, noting the student's family of five were all being tested as well.
