Taylor Swift album listening party turns into Covid superspreader after 100 test positive

The celebration party of Taylor Swift's recently released 'Red (Taylor's Version)' in Sydney Australia has turned out into a Covid-19 superspreader.
However, Swift, 32, wasn’t actually part of the party, it was a special gathering of fans to celebrate the re-release of her 2012 album.

As per the reports, more than 100 people who attended a Swift-themed party last week have since tested positive for the virus. 

Partygoers who attended the 'On Repeat: Taylor Swift Red Party' are now being asked to isolate after "at least 97 cases" have been confirmed, officials said reportedly.

As per reports the pop star was not in attendance at the event. New South Wales Health Department has also tagged Metro Theatre in Sydney as a "new venue of concern" following the celebration of Swift`s rerelease of `Red.`

In a statement, "NSW Health is urgently contacting 600 people who attended Metro Theatre at this time and checked in via the QR code and is directing them and members of their households to immediately get tested and follow public health advice."
