COVID-19

Current as at 13 November 2023.

Logan City Council facilities and services operate in line with the current advice from Queensland Health.

Council’s top priority is the health and safety of our community, customers and staff.

Everyone is encouraged to maintain social distancing and good hygiene habits.

Guidelines for a close COVID-19 contact in Queensland can be found online. Find the latest information on the Queensland Health website.

The COVID-19 traffic light system is no longer in use.

Queensland Health is now monitoring COVID-19 as part of its broader surveillance of acute respiratory illnesses, like influenza and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV).

This change is in response to:

evidence pointing to a decline in COVID-19 waves, and
the World Health Organization’s (WHO) declaration that the illness is no longer a public health emergency.

For more information visit Queensland Government - Traffic light advice.

Face masks

No Public Health Directions are in effect requiring face masks to be worn.

You should consider wearing a mask:

if you're vulnerable (at higher risk of disease)
if you're diagnosed with COVID-19 or have symptoms of an acute respiratory infection
if you're a close contact
where requested by someone inside their home or business.

You may still be asked to wear a mask

Businesses and facilities may still require masks to be worn in certain circumstances. For example:

your general practitioner may ask you to wear a mask when in their waiting and consulting rooms
a hospital may require you to wear a mask when visiting patients or in certain areas
a carer may be asked to wear a mask when providing care to a vulnerable person.

If you’re asked to wear a mask, we ask that you cooperate with that request.
