We will continue to monitor the situation and work with Queensland Health to make sure public health information during a pandemic is able to continue to be freely available.

Facebook has restricted access to @qldhealthnews FB page as part of their restrictions on news content in Australia. This means they can’t do live streams of the daily CHO/Premier pandemic response updates, there are no past posts are visible and they can’t do any new posts

[Health Consumers Qld @HCQconsumerorg]

Currently Qlders are still able to access QH’s content via their website and Instagram. You are also able to access news through each news providers apps, websites and YouTube accounts. ABC’s app live streams the CHO/Premier daily press conferences.
