How Victoria will close its border to New South Wales by Saturday

ABC  

It's been barely a month since the border reopened between Victoria and New South Wales, but it will be shut again from 11:59pm on Friday, this time from the Victorian side. Acting Premier Jacinta Allan said the difficult decision was made based on public health advice, after New South Wales recorded 10 new coronavirus cases today. "We have to do everything we possibly can to lock in the situation we have here in Victoria, keep ahead of where the case numbers might be, particularly in light of the case numbers coming out of New South Wales," Ms Allan said. From 11:59pm on Friday, January 1, every Victorian arriving back from any part of New South Wales will be required to enter hotel quarantine for a fortnight.
