Queensland health authorities say they are currently reviewing all of the remaining COVID restrictions as the state records 10 deaths and 5,286 new cases in the latest reporting period.
Chief Health Officer John Gerrard and Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk confirmed they would make an announcement by the end of the month.
"We're currently looking at all of the restrictions that we have in place in Queensland, all of them are currently under review," Dr Gerrard said.
Dr Gerrard said they were "looking at everything" including face masks and vaccine venue mandates.
"The virus isn't going to go away, we're still going to see transmission of the virus heading into winter."
There are currently 462 people with COVID-19 in public hospitals, 35 people in ICU and 16 people on ventilators.
Of the 10 deaths, three people were in their 60s, three in their 70s, one in their 80s and three in their 90s.
Dr Gerrard said the deaths were people who had recent COVID positive test results, but may not have died from the disease.
He said there had only been a slight increase in the number of school children testing positive, with 1,587 cases between the ages of five and 17 in the latest reporting period.
"Interestingly, we've been looking at New South Wales's experience, which is a week ahead of us in terms of schools returning, and they've only seen a very slight blip in the number of increased cases on the return to school," he said.
He said the situation in hospitals continued to improve, with a fall in the number of overall patients with COVID, and those in intensive care.
Ms Palaszczuk said she expected to keep daily updates going until the current wave was over.
