Police will launch a crackdown on Queenslanders in quarantine to avoid the state slipping into another coronavirus outbreak similar to Victoria.
Almost 3,000 people are under quarantine orders in Queensland, with the majority isolated inside their homes.
Police Minister Mark Ryan said he had seen an increasing number of people breaching quarantine orders, as the numbers of COVID-19 cases declined in the state.
"Don't think we're not watching you," Mr Ryan said.
"We see what happens when you drop the ball on coronavirus.
"The issue for all Queenslanders here is don't be complacent, you've got to be compliant."
Deputy Commissioner Steve Gollschewski said some people had been breaching restrictions orders, by going out of their homes to shops, for coffees and to visit friends.
He said police would double-down on their compliance checks from next Monday including more unannounced visits and phone calls.
Regional areas with high transient populations, like the backpacker community in the Wide Bay, would also be targeted.
"If they don't answer the phone when they're supposed to, if they're not where they are supposed to be in terms of their quarantine, we will take the appropriate action," Deputy Commissioner Gollschewski said.
"They need to follow their quarantine direction."
The crackdown aligns with a coronavirus outbreak in Victoria, where cases have been spread by families disobeying quarantine orders.
Queensland has broken its week-long record of no new coronavirus patients, with one case reported today in a member of the Australian Defence Force returning from Papua New Guinea.
The Defence Department said the man had been in PNG since January, and in self-isolation since June 5 when he first experienced symptoms.
The Australian High Commission is assisting with contact tracing in PNG.
The new coronavirus patient brings Queensland's total to 1,067, with just two active cases remaining.
