Queensland Premier
Annastacia Palaszczuk has confirmed that much of the state will enter a snap three-day lockdown from 6pm tonight in a bid to go “hard and fast” at emerging COVID-19 concerns in the state.
The lockdown area will cover all of south-east Queensland – the 11 LGAs that were placed under tighter restrictions yesterday, including Greater Brisbane – as well as Townsville City, Palm Island, and Magnetic Island.
Today’s announcement follows confirmation that two new locally acquired cases of COVID-19 have been recorded in the state across the past 24 hours. One of those cases, a 19-year-old casual clerical worker at the Prince Charles Hospital in Chermside, is reportedly of particular concern to health authorities.
