SYDNEY: Australia will require all international travellers to test negative for COVID-19 before boarding flights to the country, Prime Minister Scott Morrison said on Friday, as it tightened travel rules to stop the spread of the UK COVID-19 variant.
Australia would also reduce by half the cap on international arrivals to some states until Feb. 15, Morrison said.
