WHAT IS THE BENEFIT OF USING THE CHECK IN QLD APP?
When a person is diagnosed with COVID-19, Queensland Health will conduct contact tracing. Information collected at the businesses about customers and staff will assist in identifying and contacting the relevant close contacts. This will assist public health officers to contain and respond to the spread of COVID-19 within the community.
Once you have used the Check In Qld app at one business, the app will remember your details, saving you time in the future and providing easy check-in across other Check In Qld participating venues.
STAY SAFE
Remember to stay safe and help stop the spread.
Maintain a minimum space of 1.5 metres between you and other people that aren’t from your household. Don’t exceed maximum venue numbers as signed. Stay home if sick. Get tested if you have COVID-19 symptoms. Clean hands often with soap or sanitiser provided at all our venues.For information regarding the Check in Qld app please visit www.covid19.qld.gov.au/check-in-qld
