The upcoming changes in NSW and Victoria relate to the isolation requirements of close contacts only. Details of what this means for close contacts in NSW or Victoria differ slightly. Finally, daily rapid antigen tests (under some circumstances) for close contacts will be expensive. That is up to 28 rapid antigen tests for the four close contacts, at about A$10 per test. So governments will seriously have to consider some sort of subsidy for close contacts, or better still, supply them for free.
