Gladys Berejiklian has urged state premiers to keep borders open to enable people make Easter holiday plans, while saying there’s no reason to suspend the rollout of the AstraZeneca vaccine.

A number of European nations have suspended using the vaccine because of concerns that some recipients had developed blood clots. AstraZeneca has said there is no known link between the vaccine and blood clots, with the NSW premier saying the vaccines are “absolutely critical” in the fight against the pandemic.
