Queensland has recorded another day of zero community COVID cases, and no cases in hotel quarantine.
The state’s total number is 1,964, with 9,918 tests completed in 24 hours.
Just 39 cases remain active after 12 people were discharged.
Deputy Premier Steven Miles said Queensland Health was continuing to ramp up vaccinations, with just over 13,000 administered.
More than 3 million vaccine doses have been put into the arms of Queenslanders since they became available.
There are now 970 people in home quarantine, a stark contrast to the 19,000 that were quarantined at the peak of the Indooroopilly outbreak.
Mr Miles said the new restrictions at the New South Wales border requiring essential workers to have received their first vaccination, were resulting in a dramatic reduction in vehicles entering Queensland.
“We intercepted 2,715 vehicles, 142 of those were turned away, 12 of those were essential workers who would’ve been admitted if they had have been vaccinated,” he said.
More to come.
