The Federal Government will decide whether a quarantine facility will be built in Toowoomba, during a National Cabinet meeting today.
The proposed 1000-bed facility would be built at the International Wellcamp Airport, west of Toowoomba’s CBD, and would take repatriated travellers to the site from the tarmac.
The facility could house workers on-site on a 16-day rotation to mitigate health risks in the community, and would be similar to the successful Howard Springs facility in Darwin.
