Returning Paralympians Home Quarantine Trial In NSW

NSW is trialling a home quarantine system with some of the Paralympic athletes returning home from Japan. Currently, 17 Paralympians are quarantining at home for 14 days with exemptions from the NSW government. All Paralympians who competed were fully vaccinated before heading to Tokyo, and will continue to undergo standard COVID-19 testing whilst in home quarantine.

The NSW government is looking to expand the home quarantine trials for the fully vaccinated. Ms Berejiklian has announced, “The NSW government is close to piloting some home quarantine options for returning Australians.”
