More than three million Queenslanders will enter into the state s strictest lockdown ever after six new Covid cases were recorded on Saturday - with NRL, AFL and Super Netball games all cancelled.
From 4pm on Saturday 3.2million residents from 11 LGAs in the state will be confined to their homes for three days until 4pm on Tuesday.
The new cases are all confirmed to be the highly contagious Indian delta strain of the virus.
The LGas affected include Brisbane, Moreton Bay, Gold Coast, Ipswich, Lockyer Valley, Logan, Noosa Shire, Redland City, the Scenic Rim Regional Council, the Somerset Regional Council and the Sunshine Coast Regional Council.
Queensland has been put on alert after a patient visited a busy GP practice while unknowingly infected with Covid-19.
The infected case visited a clinic on the Gold Coast for a different medical reason before their GP noticed they had cold-like symptoms.
The patient was told to get tested for coronavirus and later returned a positive result for the highly-contagious Delta strain of the virus.
