Updated travel advice for Victoria and South Australia
WA Health has issued updated advice for travellers who have recently returned from Victoria and South Australia after public health alerts were issued for both states yesterday.
Anyone who has visited exposure sites in Victoria or exposure sites in South Australia are required to be tested immediately (within 48 hours), quarantine for 14 days and get tested again at day 11.
"The situation highlights the importance of remaining vigilant to prevent any spread of the virus or community transmission in this State," Chief Health Officer Dr Andrew Robertson said.
"We will continue to monitor the situation very closely and issue updated health advice if required.
"It's also another timely reminder of why getting vaccinated is so important and I would again urge people to make their booking as soon as they are able to."
Tasmania
WA Health has issued updated advice for travellers who have recently returned from Tasmania, after a public health alert was issued for parts of that state last week.
The Tasmanian Department of Health has released a list of sites that were visited by a person who tested positive for COVID-19 two days after they left the state and arrived in London.
While the risk to the Western Australian community is considered to be extremely low – anyone who has recently arrived into WA from Tasmania and has been to one of the exposure sites during the relevant times is required to get tested, then present for 48-hour and 11-day testing.
Border controls
Information about border controls is available online.
Variants
