Queensland has unveiled a new regime to manage interstate COVID-19 outbreaks, in a step back from the total border shutdowns that have previously devastated businesses and led to travel chaos.
The new Interstate Exposure Venues Direction requires anyone who has been to a declared COVID-19 exposure site to immediately go into 14 days of quarantine “in government-arranged accommodation”.
