Victoria has recorded 11 new local cases of COVID-19, all linked to known outbreaks and in isolation for their entire infectious period

Daniella White

“I know that everybody thinks they’ve got a scoop in saying when this will end ... the real answer is not even the experts know that answer because it is literally a day by day, week by week issue.” He said there have now been about 6000 reports to Crime Stoppers from “outraged” members of the public helping to track down the estimated 3500 people who breached coronavirus restrictions by attending.Some 63 people have already been arrested and a further 90 handed fines over their involvement in the protests.“The strikeforce we have set up is probably the biggest since the Cronulla riots in terms of making sure we hold these grubs to account.

“It’s usually a long tail to get to zero, a very long tail. But if we’re in a very hard lockdown, that sharp decline will happen faster because we won’t be allowed out. I know it sounds awful, but if we want to get out faster, we need the lockdown to be a little bit tighter, such as curfews, for example. Or we need workplace testing.”Victorian health authorities have not added any new exposure sites to the list for the second consecutive night.

The Health Department is warning people that “anyone who has visited this location during these times should urgently get tested, then isolate until you receive further advice from the department”. “Small businesses ... they’re doing it so tough. People are losing their jobs. We need to give more support. I don’t care what they call it. They can call it something else but we need more support.

That’s a really odd picture to have matched with that headline.

“Whhhhaaaaaat” I thought it couldn’t be controlled

👏🏻🥂Gold standard DanielAndrewsMP. This is how government looks when they respect voters, and that respect of the public is reciprocated. NSW does NOT trust or believe GladysB anymore. She is DONE. Gladys and Scomo spent MONTHS playing politics while Dan followed health advice

Testing queues on the Northern beaches were way down yesterday. I predict a large drop in testing numbers.

Her so called GOLD standard promoted by Morrison is a shite standard that will kill innocent Australians. Well done Gladys.

Victoria records 11 new local COVID-19 cases, all linked to current outbreaksBREAKING Victoria has recorded 11 new locally-acquired COVID-19 cases, with all of them in quarantine throughout their period of infection. 🎉🎉🎉🎉 Really admire that Victorians understand the need for temporarily sacrificing personal freedom to keep themselves and all of us safe. They provide leadership worthy of following. So what. Andrews is still in charge and every lockdown still leads to the next one with him.

'Still too early' to call lockdown end in Victoria as 11 new COVID-19 cases recordedVictorian Premier Daniel Andrews says it's still too early to know whether the state's lockdown can end as planned after 11 new local COVID-19 cases were recorded. ..... and he's right. He knows too well the Murdoch gotcha front page is ready. More so after those protest yesterday we will see more positive cases. Maybe I can understand the protesting next week when we have zero cases and still in lockdown but no! Let’s protest when we haven’t even got to that point and ruin all the hard work of so many who have followed the rules and kept their family and community safe.

Victoria records 11 new local COVID cases as lockdown restrictions are set to easeAll of the local cases were quarantined throughout their infectious period, as the government weighs up which restrictions could be eased early this week. Two more days will tell what the protests would impacted on the numbers . “11 new local covid cases, all in isolation”. Is it that hard to add some context? Don’t get your hopes up about restrictions changing on Tuesday. They will be very disappointing and quite harsh. Watch then tie something to vaccination numbers….
