It comes as restrictions on gatherings, aged care homes and hospitals were eased across southeast Queensland on Friday after 14 days of no community transmission.
Up to 30 people can now gather at people's homes and outdoors, in line with the rest of the state.
The sunshine state has also reopened to the Australian Capital Territory, with border controls only now in place for parts of NSW and Victoria.
