SYDNEY, Dec 3 — Australia’s borders will likely stay closed for "some time”, Prime Minister Scott Morrison said today, despite progress in rolling out Covid-19 vaccines.
Britain yesterday approved the use of the Pfizer vaccine, stoking hopes of rapid Covid-19 inoculations across the world.
Still, Morrison said Australia would keep its borders closed to non-Australian citizens and non-permanent residents.
"On international borders we’re still some time away from that,” Morrison told reporters in Canberra. — Reuters
