WHO warns vaccinated travellers could still need to be quarantined – Sydney Morning Herald
“No matter what we’ve done to date, the virus will continue to spread, despite vaccinations,” WHO adviser Dr David Heymann said.
Asked by The Sydney Morning Herald and The Age what this would mean for Australia’s quarantine program, Swaminathan said “I don’t believe we have the evidence on any of the vaccines to be confident that it’s going to prevent people from actually getting the infection and therefore being able to pass it on”.
“We need to assume that people who have been vaccinated also need to take the same precautions till there’s a certain level of herd immunity. This is a dynamic in an evolving field.”
