Also allows for some tracking of the outbreak - especially if its a self-administered RAT.

With the new definition of “close contacts” being announced - meaning they only really relate to household type settings, why do we still need QR code check ins at retail and hospitality venues?
They seem a bit pointless to me, other than being to advise you to monitor for symptoms from an exposure site (which is the new rule anyway in most states).
Have I missed something with that?
Indoor mask mandates returning in the NT from 6pm tonight
Looks like NSW may drop the check-ins again soon
That’s good news from my perspective.

How many people still check in every time they go somewhere?
As i posted earlier today.
The only potential use in Queensland is to theoretically check vaccination status for no vital services.

Its returned to being a requirement in NSW - but the few places I’ve been since haven’t had anyone checking
What, after a week? Are these people serious?
Stop touching the rules!
I still do. Can’t speak for NSW, but I’m noticing that basically everyone still checks into retail stores in Victoria. Well that’s the case in my area anyway.

They’ve rehashed the talking points from the last time they removed them - swear that statement word for word was made earlier in the month
Not that I am leaving home a great deal these days, trying to avoid doing so as much as possible, but when I do I generally observe people still complying with checking in.

Are QR check-ins still required in Victoria?
With exception to rural / regional WA, I believe this means indoor mask mandates are now applicable nationwide.
I do.

Most people in the parts of Brisbane I have seen seem to use the check in app.

Yeah, they’re still mandatory.
I honestly thought that compliance would have reduced in recent months because of fatigue regarding restrictions, but it still seems to be at a similar level as before (from what I’ve observed anyway).

NSW lost that on 15 Dec, only for our government to backflip a week later. They don’t know if they’re coming or going.

Yes, the NSW Govt is in the Gold Medal position for government gymnastics with all the backflips they are doing.

Not surprised, at this point of time with NSWs case numbers, check-ins are nothing more than a placebo.
It’ll be interesting to see if they backflip once again once case numbers start to burn out.
