A man in his 20s and a woman in her 40s are among three people to die with COVID-19 in South Australia, as the state records 4,274 daily cases on the eve of the election. Key points: South Australia has recorded 4,274 new COVID-19 cases on the eve of the state election More than a quarter of eligible South Australians will not vast their vote on Saturday Up to 80,000 people are quarantining as close contacts across SA The third death was a man in his 80s and there are now 21,651 active COVID cases in the state. Chief Public Health Officer Professor Nicola Spurrier has estimated that aside from the people isolating with COVID, up to 80,000 close contacts could also be quarantining. When asked if restrictions were eased too quickly and to keep the COVID-fatigued public on side, Professor Spurrier said it was a "complex decision-making process" and could not answer "yes or no".
