A protester who attended the Black Lives Matter march in Melbourne on June 6 has tested positive for the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) virus, the novel coronavirus that causes the disease COVID-19.

Victoria Chief Health Officer Brett Sutton confirmed the diagnosis on June 11, saying that the gentleman in his 30s wore a mask, was not showing any symptoms at Saturday’s central Melbourne protest, and that it is unlikely he contracted the virus at the event.
