Perthi sulgemine peatab Trans-Tasmani mulli WA-sse

New Zealand has paused the trans-Tasman bubble to WA after Perth and the Peel region entered a three-day lockdown.

The state imposed the restrictions, which began at midnight on Friday, after a Victorian man who had spent five days in Perth subsequentely tested positive for COVID.

Ainult karantiinivaba reisimine algas esmaspäeval, but New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern had warned the agreement would be temporarily halted in the event of a lockdown.

New Zealand COVID-19 Response Minister Chris Hipkins said Kiwis still in WA should follow local rules, which include mandatory mask-wearing.

“As set out in our trans-Tasman bubble protocols, travel between New Zealand and Western Australia has been paused, pending further advice from the state government,” Hipkins said.

“New Zealand health officials are in contact with their Australian counterparts and are completing a risk assessment.

“This is an example of the type of scenario both countries have planned for.”

Kui Uus-Meremaa teatas, et alustab karantiinivaba reisimist, teatas ta, et teeb seda peaminister Arderni juhiste järgi "lendaja ettevaatust". COVID-klastri korral jätab riik endale õiguse kokkulepet jätkata, peatada või peatada.

Kui leiti juhtum, mis oli selgelt seotud karantiiniasutuse töötajaga ja oli hästi ohjeldatud, jätkub tõenäoliselt reisimine.

Kui leitakse juhtum, mis ei olnud selgelt seotud, ja osariik reageerib lisateabe leidmiseks lühikese lukuga, peataks Uus-Meremaa tõenäoliselt lennud sellest osariigist samamoodi nagu lennud on peatatud varem.

Kuid kui mitu juhtumit juhtus teadmata päritoluga, peatatakse lennud tõenäoliselt teatud ajaks.

The Victorian man who tested positive had completed two weeks of quarantine at a WA hotel.

He had dined at a Malaysian restaurant with a friend he was staying with, and visited a swimming pool in the southern suburbs.

It comes after a border worker at Auckland Airport tested positive for COVID earlier this week.

However, PM Ardern said on Tuesday the employee has a “very clear link at this stage to cases that are high-risk” because the person cleaned aircraft arriving from countries with large prevalence of the virus.

Kahepoolne paigutus ametlikult avati 18. aprillil kell 11 ja esmaspäeval tegi Air New Zealand 59 lendu ning Qantas ja Jetstar 30 lendu.

Qantas ja Jetstar opereerivad 83 protsenti oma COVID-eelsest võimsusest Uus-Meremaale, nüüd, kui mull on käivitunud, ning alustavad ka kahte uut marsruuti Aucklandist Cairnsi ja Gold Coasti.

Kokku näitas Qantas Group nädalas kuni 122 edasi-tagasi lendu üle Tasmani 15 liinil ehk igal nädalal 52,000 3 istekohta. See on praeguse ühesuunalise kokkuleppe ajal töötanud vaid XNUMX-protsendilise COVID-eelse võimsusega.

Air New Zealandi 30 igapäevast lendu peaks kasvama enam kui 300-ni nädalas Brisbane'ist, Melbourne'ist, Gold Coastist, Perthist ja Sydneyst Aucklandi, Wellingtoni ja Christchurchi.
