Queensland MPs have passed more than $4 billion worth of health and economic reforms to help the community during the coronavirus pandemic, as the state records another two cases overnight.

There are now 1,026 known cases in the state with the majority of those people recovered..

Health Minister Steven Miles said the sources of both new cases were known.

One is a Queensland resident who got ill overseas and is quarantining in Western Australia after returning to one of that state's ports.

The second case is a person who had contact with an unwell person.

"Yesterday, we performed 2,539 tests, which means we're sustaining that very low percentage of positive testing rate," he said.

Twenty people are in hospital with COVID-19, including seven in intensive care.

Queensland's Chief Health Officer Jeannette Young said the low results were due to people following the "extraordinarily onerous" restrictions.

"Because of that we can now look at what restrictions we can safely remove," she said.

Up to 20 allowed at funerals

Dr Young has revealed she has been starting to relax tough restrictions around funerals, which currently limit gatherings to just 10 people.

She said she had been granting exemptions to allow up to 20 people at a service.

"I did early on, prior to a lot of those restrictions being put in place, make some decisions to allow larger numbers and fortunately we can see that we didn't have outbreaks because of that," she said.

"For people who are able to put in place systems so they do manage their contact and do manage that 1.5-metre distance at all times while they're holding the funeral, and they do know everyone who attends that funeral so we can very rapidly contact them.

"And [providing] they do provide hand sanitiser … and as long as no one is unwell when they attend, I have started to provide more exemptions up to that 20 limit.

"I get a lot of requests every day to provide exemptions for funerals — it's a very difficult process because it's so hard for the families at that time, but I have felt that 20, with all the other requirements in place, can be handled safely."

Calls for help peak on Good Friday

The new cases come as national crisis support network Lifeline recorded its highest number of calls in its history last month.

Lifeline Group executive Brent McCracken said they have been receiving 24,000 calls a week from people struggling with "loneliness and isolation", with Good Friday the worst day.

"They are people who really often find they don't have anyone else to turn to," he said.

Mr Miles said there had also been a spike in mental health call outs.

"Our paramedics are seeing a 12 -15 per cent increase from Queenslanders suffering … depression anxiety, suicidal ideation, or self harm," he said.

Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk said Lifeline will receive a $3.5 million funding boost, as part of the Government's multi-billion-dollar package to help the state during the pandemic.

Another $1 million will be given to Legacy, whose fundraising in the lead-up to Anzac Day has been severely impacted.

Mini budget to be released over $4.5b support package

An emergency sitting of Parliament was held yesterday, with MPs sitting late into the night.

Laws were passed, with bi-partisan support, to deliver about $4.5 billion in funding to support households, businesses and the health sector.

They include tax breaks for businesses, cuts to water and electricity bills and loans for businesses to keep people employed.

Special laws protecting tenants who cannot pay rent during the coronavirus crisis were also passed with unanimous support.

It gives a six-month moratorium on evictions for tenants who can prove they have lost substantial income because of COVID-19.

Ms Palaszczuk said the Treasurer would release a "mini budget" or an "economical statement" later this year in relation to the new measures.

She said the support package was "absolutely needed".
