Australia will FINALLY reopen borders after Covid-19 lockdown

Coronavirus latest - AUSTRALIA will finally reopen its borders, more than 18 months after closing them in response to the Covid pandemic. Since March 2020, the country has been subject to a series of brutal lockdowns - despite having a relatively low number of Covid cases. But Prime Minister Scott Morrison has finally announced that fully-vaccinated citizens living abroad would be able to travel home from next month. Aussie travellers won't have to quarantine at a hotel – giving back long awaited freedoms to residents and their families. “The time has come to give Australians their life back," Morrison said. “We're getting ready for that, and Australia will be ready for take-off, very soon.” He added that people would be eligible to travel when their state’s vaccination rate hit 80 per cent. Travel would not immediately be open to foreigners, but the government said it was working "towards welcoming tourists back to our shores" as airlines cautiously announced plans to restart flights.
