ACT Minister for Health Rachel Steven-Smith apologised to residents who had queued up for hours to be tested last night, only to be turned away before it was their turn. Asked on whether health authorities were certain that the first identified case was patient zero, Ms Coleman said she was comfortable, but "all options" are still being reviewed."All options are on the table.
