Australia's National Rugby League ordered teams to adopt tighter biosecurity protocols on Tuesday following a surge of COVID-19 infections in the country's southeast.
The announcement came as Victoria state reported 270 new cases and neighbouring New South Wales ramped up social distancing restrictions amid a cluster of infections linked to a pub in western Sydney.The 12 teams based in NSW and the Australian Capital Territory would revert back to the strict"bubble" conditions the league enforced when it resumed on May 28, the NRL said.
"We won't take any risks with our players and the community," league boss Peter V'landys said in a statement. Queensland reported one new case of COVID-19 from a returned traveller at a quarantine hotel on Monday and none on Tuesday.
