(SUMMIT NEWS) -- Alice Springs, a town in Australia 800 miles away from the nearest city has gone into full lockdown after just a single new case of COVID-19 was detected. Yes, really.
“Everyone in the town has been told they need to stay at home for three days – only being allowed to leave for food, healthcare, exercise, work and to provide care for others,” reports Sky News. “It comes after a man who travelled through Alice Springs’ airport later tested positive for the coronavirus.”
That’s right – due to a SINGLE case of COVID being detected, the entire town of 30,000 people is now under lockdown, despite being 800 miles away from the nearest major cities of Darwin and Adelaide.
