IN FULL: Tasmania tightens border restrictions with NSW and eases borders with QLD | ABC News

Tasmania has further tightened its border restrictions with New South Wales, due to the increasing COVID-19 risk in regional areas. Anyone who travels through the state by road or rail, even if only stopping for fuel, will be considered as having spent time in a high-risk level ONE area. The 13 Queensland LGAs which have been deemed high risk by the Tasmanian government, will be downgraded to low risk at midnight. This means all of Queensland will be considered low risk to Tasmania, with the exception of specific premises which have been outlined as exposure sites.
