Western Australia has tightened its travel rules overnight following a surge in Covid cases in Queensland, Tasmania and New South Wales.
The state has moved Queensland to “medium risk”, meaning travellers must have an exemption to enter the state and then spend two weeks in quarantine. Tasmanians are also required to isolate for two weeks. All arrivals coming into WA must be fully vaccinated.
Meanwhile, NSW has been completely shut out, deemed an “extreme risk” after a dramatic rise in cases over the last few days. Only those in “extraordinary circumstances” will be granted entry.
