A woman in her 20s is the latest person diagnosed with coronavirus as the number of active cases in the state fell by three to 25.

Health Minister Steven Miles said the woman recently returned from overseas and remains in supervised hotel quarantine.

He said 7660 people were tested for the virus in the 24 hours to Tuesday morning following an outbreak at Ipswich Hospital.

“Queensland Health continues to aggressively contact trace and quarantine close contacts to the latest cluster,” he told parliament.

A woman in her 30s was the fifth case linked with infected patients at the hospital on Monday.

More than 200 staff at the health facility west of Brisbane remain in isolation.

Victoria has had eight more coronavirus deaths as new cases rose slightly to 55. The fatalities take the state’s toll to 683 and the national figure to 770.

While Tuesday’s case numbers are up on the 41 recorded on Monday, it wasn’t a major spike.

Victorians are now fixated on the two-week case average, which will be a key indicator for the government’s roadmap out of the state’s second outbreak.

Health authorities in NSW have confirmed nine new coronavirus infections in the 24 hours to 8:00pm yesterday, including three at a Sydney hospital.

Three of yesterday’s cases were linked to Concord Hospital, in Sydney’s inner west and are two healthcare workers and a visitor.

There are now seven infections associated with both Concord and Liverpool hospitals, including six healthcare workers.

Virus clusters thought to be linked to two quarantine-dodging teens have now infected 85 people.

It comes as more than 200 people applied to cross the state’s borders to seek medical attention in Queensland.

Dr Miles said the border exemption hotline received 231 calls from patients in NSW and Victoria since its launch on Friday.

He said from June to August, the Queensland’s hospitals treated more than 9700 interstate patients, with 75 per cent from NSW.
