Zero coronavirus cases for Queensland on day two of lockdown

There were no new COVID-19 cases recorded in Queensland overnight as Greater Brisbane enters the second day of the snap lockdown announced on Friday.

More than 19,000 tests were conducted in the state over the past 24 hours and Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk thanked Queenslanders for complying with lockdown measures including the mandatory use of masks in public.

The highly contagious UK variant has potentially been active in the community since January 2 but no locally acquired cases have yet been detected.

Queensland is on high alert after a cleaner at one of Brisbane's quarantine hotels was initially diagnosed with the UK virus strain.

Ms Palaszczuk said a total of 147 close contacts have now been identified with 112 testing negative to date.

Residents in the council areas of Brisbane, Logan, Ipswich, Moreton Bay and Redlands must stay at home until 6pm on Monday except for essential work and shopping, exercise, to access healthcare or look after the vulnerable.

Ms Palaszczuk is expected to give another update at 9am on Monday.

Meanwhile, Victoria recorded zero local coronavirus cases for the fourth day in a row.

There were six cases recorded in hotel quarantine in the past 24-hours. There are currently 45 active cases and 23,412 test results were received.
