Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk says the Queensland government will explore other uses for the Wellcamp quarantine facility as she came out swinging in defence of the hub.
Queensland Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk has defended the Wellcamp COVID-19 quarantine complex amid reports seven people are staying at 1000-bed facility.
The privately owned facility designed to quarantine Covid-positive patients, cost taxpayers $190 million but has been rendered almost useless after mandatory isolation rules were scrapped.
WA Premier Mark McGowan has admitted his state s $200 million Covid quarantine facility, which is still being built, will likely sit empty for a time as the government wonder what to do with it.
