The death of Australia's first Millenial coronavirus victim, a 30-year-old man, has sparked a contact tracing and testing blitz in the central Queensland coal mining town of Blackwater.
The man's partner found his body in their home on Tuesday afternoon. He is described as having a complicated medical history but had not been tested for COVID-19 before his death. The coroner will investigate his death.
