Palaszczuk still hesitant to open border

The NSW Government has announced shires along the coast of Tweed Heads to Byron Bay and west to Moree Plains will have lockdown lifted from midnight tonight, despite Covid-19 being detected in sewage.

Queensland Premier Anastacia Palaszczuk has said she will wait until more details on the lockdown relaxation are announced before considering a border bubble, remaining concerned about the ongoing high infection rates in NSW.
