"Our thoughts are with this family at the moment," he said.

SA Chief Health Officer Nicola Spurrier said the child remains "clinically well", however the miner remains "very unwell".

The family remains in Adelaide's Tom's Court medi-hotel, but the miner may need to be taken to the Royal Adelaide Hospital.

There will be no reduction to the restrictions currently in place in the state.

More to come.
