Hi all – just wondering if anyone has included “attendance at a mass gathering” in their COVID-19 questions when screening patients for admission – and if so what are they doing about a positive answer?
Thanks

Hi Jenny
We considered this, but decided against it, as there are no current QLD or Commonwealth recommendations regarding specific exclusions for those who attended a mass rally, apart from reporting symptoms and getting tested. So we just continue to ask questions about symptoms, travel and exposures. As well as current testing.
“There is no current recommendation that people who attended those mass gatherings should do anything different, in fact, do exactly the same thing – which is get tested if they become unwell,” he said.
Cheers
