Queensland Health are still trying to contact 50 people in Queensland connected to Melbourne Airport s terminal four, a declared coronavirus exposure zone.
A mammoth contact tracing effort has been underway in response to Victoria s latest COVID-19 cluster, which prompted a statewide five-day lockdown.
Last week, Queensland Health said 1,500 people were originally identified as being in Queensland after travelling through the terminal.
The Therapeutic Goods Administration will now test the vaccines to ensure they meet Australia's strict quality standards ahead of a vaccine rollout.
