The state’s mask mandate could be lifted as soon as today with Queensland set to pass a vaccination milestone.

Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk has confirmed the rule will be lifted once 80 per cent of the eligible population has had their first dose of a COVID-19 vaccine.

BREAKING: Masks will no longer be required when 80% of eligible Queenslanders have received at least one dose of a COVID-19 vaccine 😷😁
