In the coming months, it's likely that you may become infected with COVID-19. Most fully vaccinated people will only experience a mild illness, but if you do test positive, both you and members of your household will need to isolate for a minimum of 7 days after you receive a positive test result ✅.

Most COVID-positive people can isolate at home 🏡. To help you prepare, we've got a COVID-Ready Kit of some essentials that are good to have on hand 👇.

What you need will depend on your situation 🐶👶 which is why you can find more information here 👉 https://www.qld.gov.au/covid-ready

Hey Queenslanders 👋, we've seen a lot of questions about what makes someone a close contact. The definition has recently changed.

🧑‍🤝‍🧑 A close contact is a household contact of a confirmed COVID-19 case. A household contact is someone who lives with a case 🏠 or has spent more than 4 hours with them in a house 🏡, accommodation 🏨 or care facility 🏥.

You are a close contact if 👇
✅ You live with someone who has COVID-19 like a partner, housemate or visiting family member
✅ You've been with someone who has COVID-19 for over 4 hours in their accommodation

You aren't a close contact if 👇
🚫 You have come in contact with a COVID-19 case at work
🚫 You caught up with a COVID-19 case outside of your home

All close contacts must quarantine at home for 7 days from their date of exposure and have a negative test on day 6 to leave. Learn more here 👉 https://www.qld.gov.au/health/covid19/closecontacts
