South Australia and Queensland have become the latest states to close their borders to greater Sydney as the Northern Beaches cluster continues to grow.
Obviously, this will further fuck up many people’s Christmas and New Year’s Eve plans, however it’s what needs to be done to stop things getting out of control like pretty much everywhere else in the world.
South Australia s police chief has apologised to hundreds of travellers from NSW who were forced to quarantine despite arriving in Adelaide before the border deadline.
The passengers, who flew from Sydney to Adelaide last night, have been left heartbroken after they were told they would need to either go into quarantine despite arriving hours before the state s border closure.
