The question of whether that is true or not could have been countered by simply including in the press releases that he was a "returning Australian resident", but it wasn't.

He went straight to his home in Melbourne's eastern suburbs, then moved to Victoria's hotel quarantine system at his request and later tested positive on Friday morning.
Mr Weimar said he wanted to thank the Burwood man for being proactive after being told he was a close contact.
"He immediately started wearing a mask, he distanced himself, his wife came and picked him up from the airport, he isolated at home, the family stayed within their house," he said.
Strongly suggests that he is a citizen or permanent resident.
Similarly, it has been announced that of the other 24 people on the same floor as the infected person, five have already left the country.
What the heck is that about? People are now flying into Australia to spend a little relaxation time in quarantine and then flying out again?
Or they arrive as maritime crew at a WA port, are flown to Perth by closed charter and remain in quarantine until their international flight to their home country?
