Sewage in outback Queensland towns along the New South Wales border are not being tested for Covid-19. This has sparked fears from QLD health experts, who say the state is at great risk due to the NSW Delta variant being spread closer to its borders.
Sewage testing for Covid is a vital warning sign in preparing for outbreaks. Towns such as Goondiwindi, Cunnamulla and St George are not listed on the Queensland Health website as providing any sewage testing results.
