The Red Cross has stepped in to help Queenslanders stranded in Northern New South Wales

The charity have been providing psychological and financial support to those unable to cross the border. 


Queensland Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk announced fully vaccinated travellers would be eligible to enter Queensland, but only by air. “That is a protection mechanism to keep Queenlanders safe,” she said. Once 80% have been fully vaccinated, travellers will be allowed to come by car.
