This is NOT "ridiculous" at all But it IS "unfortunate", What part of Ridiculous is the hospital taking measures to prevent an outbreak of COV19 that would potentially effect hundreds of other patients that are in that hospital.Quote:

Since NSW is aiming for suppression and not elimination as per the Federal Cabinet agreement I expect the border to be closed for a few years. [emoji849]

BTW there are at least 2 cases in Northern NSW.
As far as I am aware the Mother wasn't refused entry into QLD But she was required to quarantine for 14 days before she would be allowed to enter the hospital.Quote:
