Fully vaccinated people returning to NSW will be able to quarantine in their homes by December if a new trial proves successful, raising the likelihood of stranded Australians making it home for Christmas.

The NSW government on Friday announced the home quarantine trial involving 175 people would be undertaken in October, with the isolation period halved from 14 to seven days for the participants.

The trial will run for four weeks, with the government already considering scaling up home quarantine for fully vaccinated travellers through November if it proves a success. The NSW announcement came as health officials confirmed that 15,000 people with COVID-19 are now being cared for by NSW Health either in the community, hospital or special health accommodation.

The transition to automated calls was criticised by NSW opposition health spokesman Ryan Park, who warned that COVID-positive patients could deteriorate quickly, and needed daily interactions with trained health staff. The state recorded 1284 COVID-19 cases on Friday and 12 new deaths, six men and six women, including two people in their 20s. There are 1245 COVID-19 cases admitted to hospital, with 228 people in intensive care, 112 of whom require ventilation.

Does that include ex-pats? The probably don’t have a home here.

never do vaccine The purpose of the vaccine is to destroy and rewrite human DNA, so humans will easily die and be controlled. Therefore, the Illuminati and the dark forces of the universe can enslave human beings on Earth forever. 坚决不打疫苗 疫苗的目的是破坏和改写人类的dna ,

Those who own homes in Australia to isolate in surely couldn't have been stranded for a long time. This smacks of getting business or holiday makers home and not those who ScoMo promised to get home for last Christmas.

Don't forget... it was not the returned... it was the chauffeur that ferried them

And they’ll still be able to be infected and pass on variants of covid to others. This is so irresponsible given the experiences in other countries like Israel who found out the hard way that opening travel while reducing health measures ended up with full hospitals.

This isn’t about stranded Aussies overseas It’s about wealthy people wanting international travel back in full swing and not having to quarantine on return Oh, they’ll do it at home. Riiiiight COVID19nsw auspol

Letting Lambda, C1.2 & Mu vaccine resistant variants into the country. Fucking awesome! These are failures by the Federal LNP Govt that ALL Australians will pay dearly for. Remember it was ScottyTheAnnouncer who said they'd be home by Christmas-LAST CHRISTMAS. Lift your game SMH

Gee that's big of them! UtterOverReactiveJoke

Who is setting this up The NSW minister for Jobs, Investment and tourism!!! And you trust that guy with setting up a quarantine system No vested interests there..hey. Only 7 days home quarantine, despite a 14 day incubation period!! Very agenda based. And not health based

Brilliant. Fully vaxed people, particularly fully vaxed younger people are not burdening the health system. Time to rejoin the world.

should be zero requirements for quarantine, its pointless in a majority vaccinated society, waste of time & money & resources.

Morrison said all will be home by last Christmas.

NSW home quarantine trial a ‘big step’ in transitioning away from hotel quarantineThe NSW minister for Jobs, Investment and tourism!!! And you want to trust that guy with setting up a quarantine system No vested interests there..hey. Only 7 days home quarantine, despite a 14 day incubation period!! Very agenda based. And not health based. Typical. Most people can’t abide by the rules of lockdown. What makes you think they will quarantine at home. The cats out of the bag now. Best manage it with testing and iso when infected. You will have more deaths though until your vax levels increase.

How your postcode is faring as NSW hits 50% double-dose vaccination ratesNSW has passed the 50 per cent double dose vaccination target for its population aged 16 and over, with 50.58 per cent now fully vaccinated. Here's how every postcode is faring: NSW covid case no's seem to have stabilised... some....not rising at least. Vaxx must be helping? Ticking time bombs. Zombies waiting to happen as the 'vaccines' takes its toll on their immune systems. Within a year the Pure Bloods will have to be ready to deal with these people I fear. 30-39% fully vaccinated, so among the lowest… 😔 (postcode 2017 btw)
