The Australian state of Queensland has mandated COVID-19 vaccinations for more sectors, including workers at public and private schools, early childhood centres, correctional centres, youth detention facilities, and airports.

“We are taking this strong action to protect vulnerable Queenslanders. It is action that is consistent with other states and territories such as New South Wales and Victoria,” Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk told the state parliament on Nov. 30.
