Key points: A Virgin flight attendant tested positive for COVID-19 last week Since then, a teenage boy on one of the same flights with the attendant has also contracted the virus Meanwhile, a truck driver with COVID-19 may have visited more exposure sites than previously disclosed SA Health says the teenager was on Virgin flight VA219 from Melbourne to Adelaide with the flight attendant on October 4 and tested positive for COVID-19 after a test yesterday. The other five flights over three days that the flight attendant travelled on included: VA218 Adelaide to Melbourne on October 4 VA827 Melbourne to Sydney and VA808 Sydney to Melbourne on October 5 VA1593 Melbourne to Newcastle and VA1594 Newcastle to Melbourne on October 6.
