Three people with COVID-19 have died in South Australia and another 3,924 new cases have been recorded.
Those who died were a woman in her 80s, a man in his 50s and a man in his 80s.
More than 400,000 cases have now been recorded in SA since the start of the pandemic – equivalent to almost a quarter of the state's population.
Before South Australia opened its borders last November, only 922 cases had been recorded in the state.
The number of people in hospital since yesterday has dropped by 18 cases to 222 people.
There are now 24,621 active cases in the state.
From tomorrow, close contacts of COVID-19 cases will no longer have to quarantine, bringing South Australia into line with interstate rules under changes made last week.
People who have spent four hours with a COVID-19 case or live in the same household as one are considered close contacts.
Rather than isolating for seven days, close contacts will instead have to take five rapid antigen tests (RATs) over a seven-day period following their exposure to the virus.
Close contacts will also have to wear masks when outside the house and will be prohibited from visiting high-risk settings such as hospitals and aged care facilities.
A total of 338 people with COVID-19 have died in South Australia so far — all but eight of them in 2022.
