New vaccine mandates will be enforced in Queensland venues from tomorrow, restricting people who haven't been jabbed.
New mandates will mean vaccine certificates will be mandatory for venues like theaters, cafes, restaurants, pubs, and clubs.
Art galleries, festivals, museums, and libraries will also be banned for the unvaccinated, however, essential shops like grocery stores and clothing retailers won't require a vaccine certificate.
In other states like New South Wales and Victoria, vaccine mandates have brought public backlash and threatening behavior towards business owners and staff, with many fearing similar actions from banned patrons in Queensland.
In clubs like The Prince Consort in Brisbane's Fortitude Valley, staff are undertaking training on how to cope with difficult customers who are refused entry when the new rules begin.
Whilst pubs and hotels have existing security measures, many cafes and restaurant owners fear repercussions from unvaccinated customers.
Queensland Police Commissioner, Katarina Carroll, said consequences would be enforced for businesses not following the rules.
