Victoria Chief Officer Brett Sutton says he's hopeful the state will finally begin to flatten the coronavirus curve despite recording a record number of cases on Monday. Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews has announced the state recorded 532 new COVID-19 infections in the past 24 hours, with six people succumbing to the disease.

Five out of six of the deaths were linked to aged care and 683 active cases were connected to such facilities. Meanwhile, Victorian private hospitals are freeing up beds to provide special care for elderly coronavirus patients as part of an agreement between the federal government and the private hospital sector in the fight against the pandemic.

FLATTEN THE CURVE OF YOUR BULLSHIT, YOU MEAN! If Australian workers knew what's really happening, there would be LYNCHINGS! CORONAVIRUS - The BIGGEST POLITICAL HOAX IN WORLD HISTORY! Being played by SUPER-PEDOPHILES, PREDATORS and RAPISTS of the world.

Dan Andrews has been doing his job since the bush fires... He hasn't take a Hawaiian holiday or a beer at the footy... It's what leadership looks like

Apart from preventing spread, what treatments are being implemented on the sick and how has this been developed over 6 months? Not one journalist is asking this question. The answer would shock most. Our death rate is too high. Too busy focusing on lockdown and not treatment

25 million people in Australia, 155 deaths.... 🤔 its safer to lock everyone in their homes 😅

So says the man who in February said climate change was more of a threat than coronavirus DanMadeDisaster

A health expert has got to feel pretty silly standing there in a cloth mask 😂You can see through the material but somehow the microscopic virus can not pass through it.

Hopefully ! Hasn’t got anything right yet!
