Queensland is considering lowering the bar to reopen the border with NSW by halving the required number of days with no community transmission to 14 | LydiaLynch101 LucyCormack

NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian has said 28 days of no community transmission was not feasible.Tourism Queensland CEO Daniel Gschwind said the Queensland Government "has suggested they are considering a 14 day rule".

"We’re still concerned that in the past four weeks, there have been 14 cases in NSW of which the cause of transmission is unknown," she said. It would mean the borders could open while there were active cases in both states, so long as authorities were able to trace how every newly infected person caught the disease for 14 days in a row.

"The people in northern NSW who are not allowed into Queensland are not being diagnosed, so what are we being saved from?"
