Tasmania to ease coronavirus border restrictions with South Australia from Thursday

South Australia will be classified as a low-risk area to Tasmania from this Thursday, meaning travellers won’t have to quarantine on arrival.

The exception will be people who have been to locations identified by SA Health as posing high risk.

These places will be specified by the Tasmanian Director of Public Health later today.

Anyone who is quarantining in Tasmania based on time spent in SA will be able to end their quarantine on Thursday, when Tasmania will be open to all other states and territories for the first time in nine months.

More to come.
