Breaking: DanielAndrewsMP is set to announce tomorrow that more people will be allowed at indoor gatherings and mask rules will be eased, with workers set to be able to remove their mask at desks. | paulsakkal

Friday will mark the end of the 14-day incubation period for many close contacts of COVID-positive people infected during the Holiday Inn outbreak.

The state started the week with 25 active cases, but shed five on Tuesday and four on Wednesday. Victoria now has 16 active cases.said A total of 808 vaccine doses were administered in Victoria on Wednesday, up from 675 on Tuesday and 580 on Monday. In total, 2063 vaccine doses have been received in Victoria this week.that health officials realised its tracing and isolation model was sufficient to deal with outbreaks involving more infectious strains of the virus, indicating the government may not mandate another lockdown if presented with a similar set of risks that sparked the recent stay-at-home order.

Paul Guerra, chief executive of the Victorian Chamber of Commerce and Industry, said relaxing indoor mask rules meant more workers would feel comfortable returning to offices and the city’s economy would regenerate. He said increasing office capacity to 75 per cent would be welcomed but said it would not be disastrous if the government waited longer to enact that change.

DanielAndrewsMP paulsakkal Look around, people have stopped caring what he says. He can announce what he likes, he has become the boy who cried wolf.

DanielAndrewsMP paulsakkal Just watch when someone talks. In the right light you can see the vapour and saliva in the air, masks 😷 help prevent this transmission. In Japan masks are worn routinely by anyone with a cold.

DanielAndrewsMP paulsakkal Make the most of it, you know if he finds 3 cases you’ll be back in them and locked up.

DanielAndrewsMP paulsakkal 👍😊👌👏

DanielAndrewsMP paulsakkal Already doing it you fuckwit!

DanielAndrewsMP paulsakkal We haven’t needed to wear masks for months so it’s nice for the government to finally catch on

DanielAndrewsMP paulsakkal How about in brothels? Do I need to use a mask?

DanielAndrewsMP paulsakkal Can't wait to see people see you on jail on visits

DanielAndrewsMP paulsakkal Surely it’s time our kids are asked to say a prayer or spare a thought for Dan each morning at the start of each day. To thank him for his everlasting goodness......another 1.5 hours of pontificating no doubt tomorrow...

DanielAndrewsMP paulsakkal How about supermarkets..we have been wearing masks for a year now ..i worm full time..10hrs a day 5 days a week ..and have worn a mask everyday..somedays i cant wait to finish just to take it off and breathe fresh air..

DanielAndrewsMP paulsakkal Compliance is poor at best. The vast majority aren’t even wearing masks behind doors in offices & shops. The longer you leave restrictions on when not necessary it will be detrimental when the rule or restriction is ACTUALLY required.

DanielAndrewsMP paulsakkal Who cares never wore a musk because they are cesspool of bacteria!!

DanielAndrewsMP paulsakkal If he wasn’t so incompetent with HQ masks and restrictions could be dropped all together.

DanielAndrewsMP paulsakkal In the meantime the state opposition are carrying on about contact tracing again. Anything to try to hoodwink the electorate into thinking that they might have something to offer.

DanielAndrewsMP paulsakkal So grateful that the Chairman is finally throwing us some breadcrumbs🙏

DanielAndrewsMP paulsakkal People still wearing masks? basalted

DanielAndrewsMP paulsakkal How fucking generous.

DanielAndrewsMP paulsakkal Oh don’t please this is fine, every time he eases it past this point something goes wrong.

DanielAndrewsMP paulsakkal So they should have a week ago. This will be from 12 midnight why not 6pm for most ..

DanielAndrewsMP paulsakkal Seriously, hands up if you’ve been wearing your mask at your desk 🤦🏻‍♀️

DanielAndrewsMP paulsakkal Thank You, oh most benevolent Dear Leader! Your glory shines through the darkness in allowing us mask free desks! Your magnificence is demonstrated in your dealings with this challenge no other Aus government created. I prostrate myself before you. Fuckwit.

DanielAndrewsMP paulsakkal Ha ha who is waiting for Dan's permission?

DanielAndrewsMP paulsakkal Oh thank you dear leader . Your fountain of science knowledge is just oozing from you . Looks like the polling data are ok for relaxing measures further .

DanielAndrewsMP paulsakkal Oh please, what will change ? He will not let go of masks, restrictions on visitors etc etc. His usual spiel !

DanielAndrewsMP paulsakkal Go away Dan

migga DanielAndrewsMP paulsakkal 'Allowed' smug corrupt sociopath.

DanielAndrewsMP paulsakkal All the restrictions should be lifted

DanielAndrewsMP paulsakkal Great move Dan

DanielAndrewsMP paulsakkal Prw-Black Rock rules. How suburbanist.

DanielAndrewsMP paulsakkal This is very big of him, can’t believe how lucky we are that he is going to allow us to do this 😳

DanielAndrewsMP paulsakkal It’s a stupid rule with the amount of cases we have & all in quarantine there is no data that suggests make do anything in any case

migga DanielAndrewsMP paulsakkal These are still restrictions on our freedom and liberty. Dress it up any way you like but we are still oppressed. springst

DanielAndrewsMP paulsakkal Where's the 'health advice' on which this nonsensical flip-flopping is based. Shops open, shops closed. Masks on, masks off. Go out, stay at home. It's really all about power and control, not public health.

DanielAndrewsMP paulsakkal Rules 🤣🤣 government mandates aren’t rules - they’re a please do what we say, but we can’t really force you! Anyone following these draconian decrees are just sheep! No individual thought, reason or intellect high enough to do your own research. I haven’t and will not comply

DanielAndrewsMP paulsakkal At their desks? Geeez come on. Have confidence in your processes and procedures we have got this under control. CBD needs a big injection to help struggling business. I know. I work for one. It’s dead. 💁‍♂️🙅‍♂️

migga DanielAndrewsMP paulsakkal Haha who at desks are actually wearing masks now? 5%?

DanielAndrewsMP paulsakkal I was just thinking about Andrews. I was trying to imagine what it would be like if the media questioned the federal government about all their blatant corruption and covering up sexual assault even a tenth as much as they grilled Andrews on any given day. Imagine that.

DanielAndrewsMP paulsakkal What hand can you use to remove your mask?
