Australia's triumph in reining in Covid-19 while infections surge in many parts of the world is making the country a “victim of our own success,” as Australians overseas want to come home, Reuters reported, quoting a cabinet minister.
Australia closed its borders in March to all but citizens and residents, and the government has kept entries capped and put those allowed into the country in a two-week mandatory quarantine.
“With what's happening with Covid-19 in other parts of the world, we're almost becoming a victim of our own success here in Australia, with more people wanting to come back,” Education Minister Dan Tehan told Sky News television.
