Queensland’s border will reopen from next Monday, 13 December, so families and loved ones can re-unite.
While this will mean a rise in COVID-19 cases, Queensland’s high vaccination rate means we are well prepared.
The Queensland Government recognises the vital role business, industry, unions and the community sector will play in making sure we reopen safely.
That’s why, in the coming days, the Government will issue the guidelines required for business and industry as our border reopens. This will include information on managing close contacts in the workplace.
Our objective is to provide an environment where business, particularly essential business, remains open.
The Government will continue to work with the Queensland Industry Recovery Alliance in this next stage, just as we have throughout the pandemic.
Very few places in the world have achieved this level of protection before a COVID wave arrives. The credit for this belongs to each and every Queenslander.
