Eight people are being treated in Brisbane because of the severity of their burns.

They include five women aged 43, 51, 59, 75 and 82 and three men aged 56, 59 and 69.

A Townsville Hospital spokesperson said a ninth person injured in the blast, a 48-year-old man, is being transported from Townsville to RBWH on Saturday.

In all, 20 people were injured when a ute crashed into a gas bottle at a cafe in Ravenshoe on Tuesday, causing an explosion.

Cafe manager, Nicole Nyholt, a 37-year-old mother of two, died in Brisbane early on Friday as a result of her injuries.

Ms Nyholt, also known as Nicole Dempsey, had suffered burns to 80 per cent of her body.

The driver and sole occupant of the ute, Brian Scutt, 60, remains in hospital in Cairns.

He has been in a critical condition and induced coma with a broken spine and burns to his face, back and body.

Community members from the far northern town of Tully are taking a convoy of flowers to Ravenshoe today in a show of support.
