State premiers will be more conscious of the economic damage of closing borders once JobKeeper ends on March 28, according to Treasurer Josh Frydenberg. Speaking to The Courier-Mail during a visit to Brisbane, Mr Frydenberg said the JobKeeper wage subsidy, which expires in 18 days, had been a constant source of economic support for states while their borders were shut.

But the looming end of the $100bn wage subsidy will remove a major safety net for premiers as they decide whether to shut their borders during any future outbreaks.
