Greater Brisbane’s coronavirus restriction set to ease on Friday. Here’s what you need to know

Greater Brisbane’s indoor mask mandate and restrictions are on track to lift on Friday with Queensland Health authorities feeling confident there is no ongoing spread of the UK strain of coronavirus.

The detection of the highly contagious strain in a cleaner at the Hotel Grand Chancellor — who spent five days in the community in early January — also sparked a three-day snap lockdown of the Greater Brisbane region.

There has now been no locally acquired cases of COVID-19 in Queensland since last week.
