COVID-19 UPDATE: September 30
Words by Jodie Powell

Six new cases of COVID-19 have been detected in Queensland in the past 24 hours as Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk announces the return of stage two restrictions.

The restrictions apply to Moreton Bay, Brisbane, the Gold Coast, Logan, Townsville and Palm Island and will be in place for the next two weeks.

They take effect at 4pm today and mean public and private gatherings are limited to 30 people, while aged care, prisons, hospitals and disability service providers are closed to visitors.

There are also restrictions for cafes, and capacity at large venues such as theatres, cinemas and sporting venues will be reduced to 75 percent, with patrons wearing masks at all times.

Businesses and venues such as gyms, beauty salons, retail outlets and restaurants will be restricted to per 4sqm or 75 percent capacity for ticketed venues

Up to 100 people can attend weddings, but only 20 can dance and up to 100 people will be allowed at funerals.

Masks indoors will be reintroduced at workplaces, all staff at schools will have to wear a mask and everyone at high schools will also have to don a mask.

Health Minister Jeannette Young says four of the new cases are linked to the aviation cluster and it is believed they attended a meeting on September 20, meaning they were infectious in the community from September 21.

Dr Young says those diagnosed live in North Lakes, Eatons Hill, Hamilton, Townsville and Biggera Waters.

"Its very important that if people have been in those LGAs (impacted by new restrictions) to please check for all those exposure venues," she says.

"Although we have not seen any community cases expand from any of those known clusters, there are so many of them, which is a concern."

Health Minister and Redcliffe MP Yvette D'Ath says testing and vaccinations are key to getting on top of the spread of the virus.

She says people in the impacted local government areas will not need a doctor's referral for a test and no appointments will be needed at the state's vaccination centres.

"You can also book in with GPs or walk into community pharmacies," Mrs D'Ath says.

She urges people to have a COVID-19 test no matter how mild their symptoms.

"Yesterday we saw Victoria and NSW have a combined total of 22 people die in 24 hours.

"That's someone dying almost every single hour from two states."
