One of the justifications for not having the hotel quarantine at the land border was the very low positivity rate there (0.3%). These new numbers could provide a reason for the Feds to start phasing it out and a chance to save face by claiming it's data/science based.

Main reason the air arrival positive test rate dropping is the stiff punishment for those who showed a fake -ve test?
