Ms Palaszczuk made the misstep at a press conference on Friday morning, where she announced Brisbane will remain in lockdown for another day after the state recorded three new cases of Covid in the community. The current lockdown restrictions will be lifted for the Noosa, Sunshine Coast, Ipswich, Logan, Redlands, Gold Coast, Scenic Rim, Lockyer Valley, Somerset and Townsville local government areas. 'That means everyone will have to carry a mask on them and wear that mask whenever they're outside of their home but of course not when you're driving your vehicle ... At the moment until everyone gets their vaccine,' she told reporters.

The outlandish suggestion was quickly met with criticism online from Queenslanders. 'Did QLD Premier just say QLD will have mandatory mask wearing until EVERYONE is vaccinated? Going to be a long long wait,' one woman wrote on social media. 'Just watched the three stooges Young, Palaszczuk and 'Bugs Bunny' Miles deliver their nauseating drivel,' wrote another. 'The QLD premier just said she doesn't want her job any longer.' Ms Palaszczuk says Brisbane and Moreton Bay will remain in lockdown for another day after the new cases emerged. Two of the cases are a mother and daughter from Carindale who have also tested positive after being infectious in Brisbane.

'Now we will come back early tomorrow morning, once your contact tracers get on top of this, and we'll look at the case numbers overnight,' Ms Palaszczuk said. 'So I want to thank everyone for doing the right thing, but as you can see we've just got a situation at the moment, that has just come in, and we really need to give the people, our contact tracers the time to do that.' Another case was reported as a contact of the Qatar Airways check-in desk staffer, who was announced as a case on Thursday, but authorities are not concerned about it.
