Well, why don’t we look at Chinese numbers instead if Australian in that case. See figure one here: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S259005362...

For all of China, in November 2019, it looks like less than 2000 positive test swabs. The number of hospitalizations would be lower.

What are the odds that three hospitalizations would come from a single lab in healthy people? Not impossible, but not probable. Flu hospitalizations are very much clustered in the elderly and very young.
