Australia has shut its border to New Zealand (NZ) for 72 hours after the country recorded three new cases of the UK strain of the CCP virus, for a second time popping the travel bubble that had existed between the two nations.
Chief Medical Officer (CMO) Paul Kelly convened an urgent meeting with the CMO’s of Australia’s states in the travel bubble and it was decided NZ would be declared a Red Zone for the next three days, Kelly announced on Sunday night.
