well applying is straightforward and easy , did it this afternoon received my QR code few hours after . i am good to go and to get in without any problems. i guess the most important was to get all these test removed. The pass may vanish one day but i am afraid insurance become as the yellow book , mandatory to travel. with jetstar it cost me 146 bux for a period of 10 days , i guess there are cheaper option but better to be prudent we never know what can happen now.
