Queenslanders required to provide proof of vaccination before entering venues such as cafes and restaurants will continue to only need to show they have had two doses of a COVID-19 vaccine.
Dominic Perrottet has declared Australia cannot live in a “hermit kingdom” as he refused to weigh in on whether his government would follow the advice of a requirement of three COVID-19 doses for overseas holidaymakers.
Australians over the age of 16 are required to receive a booster shot to maintain an "up to date" status rather than being deemed "fully vaccinated" against COVID-19.
It’s too soon to recommend booster shots for younger children. But we can watch what’s happening in the US, where children as young as 12 are receiving theirs.
