The ACT government has warned Canberrans who went to Suncorp Stadium on Friday to be alert for coronavirus symptoms and to keep an eye on Queensland Health alerts. An ACT Health spokesperson labelled the scenes at the Canberra Raiders' preliminary final against the Melbourne Storm in Brisbane as unfortunate and a timely reminder we needed to be vigilant in practising social distancing. Up to 20,000 fans were stuck outside of Suncorp Stadium when the grand final qualifier kicked off. They were all crammed together and then flooded through the turnstile in a matter of minutes when stadium officials threw open the gates. It meant only about half of the 37,112 fans were in their seats at the start of the game.
