Victoria records 127 new coronavirus cases and one death as NSW border set to close

The border between New South Wales and Victoria will close on Tuesday, marking the first time the borders between the two states have been restricted since the beginning of the coronavirus pandemic.

“This is one of those precautionary measures, it is one of those things that I think will help us in broader terms contain the spread of the virus." A sign is seen on a window at one of the public housing towers on Racecourse Road in Flemington, Melbourne.Of the 127 new cases reported on Monday, 16 are linked to the public housing towers, taking the total number of infections across the nine buildings to 53.Mr Andrews apologised for the “inconvenience” the border closure would pose for people who live in border towns, such as Albury-Wodonga.

Vigilante groups need to be formed to deal with filthy Victorian super spreader scum trying to come to other places and spread their disease.

Pray that Dan wakes up and saves himself from the agenda deception. Stand up Dan , they will ruin you in the end, expose them before they do you. DanielAndrewsMP

Does anyone know roughly how long the closure will be in place?

Just hope it’s not too late. It only takes one numskull who thinks Covid’s a conspiracy to wreak more economic and social hardship on us all as well as risk the health of others.

Our premier to be the next Aus prime minister or even the head of pandamic task force

Reap it, Victoria, reap it!

Victoria 🤦🏻‍♂️ Lost the plot

The only thing Andrews is capable of delivering is crime and corruption.

andrew_cleary12 here BelindaJones68 .... you bff has lost control in Vic & Labor has lost control

Andrews this is on you. You refused federal help with running the hotels used for Quarantine and hired some cheap security company to bang all the women who were staying there they also took them shopping! You are a joke and now you want to punish us ? Well F You Andrews👆

smh normanswan That would be right. The election is over. Am I cynical in thinking that state politicians put politics before the health on the nation?

I feel sorry for our state Govt they’re doing everything they can DanielAndrewsMP is marvellous..

Daniel Andrews closing the Victorian boarder..... tomorrow? A bit too late for that..... say the 10,000 Victorians. melbournelockdown MelbourneCovidPrisons auspol COVID19Vic

Dan has lost control. Why not have your balls drop and sack whichever minister was responsible for the hotel quarantine fiasco.

That's a bit rough on people in border towns ! AlburyWodonga

Good bye supercars 😩

Incoming boomer labor supporters screeching ThAnK YoU DanIel AnDrEwS foR youR LeAdErShIP

Will Victorians holidaying in NSW be sent home? Byron and Kingscliff is full of VIC number plates and Ballina airport is very busy....

We didn't close our borders after NSW let all passengers off the Ruby Princess who were not tested and passengers died. Well next time 🔥 are happening in NSW... please, close your Borders!

Thanks for nothing Dan Andrews!

SBS Can all the states just become independent countries? Like Europe is? I mean we obviously don't need a federal government (they're incompetent and corrupt anyway), and the states all hate each other... ...so?👌

About time. Excellent decision.

SBS Congratulations?🤔

Oh stop. Flu data please anyone? No flu data this year ? Anyone?

Brace for ‘big’ virus numbers, Victoria warnsVictoria recorded another 74 cases of coronavirus overnight, after a spike of 108 cases yesterday and more than two weeks of of new cases in at least the double digits. Consider me “braced”! 3000 people trapped in a building, being held as prisoners, forced to take a test via a dodgy test kit that has registered Covid 'positive' for fruit & inanimate objects. Firstly, you're breaking international human rights laws, but do go on about your 'faultless' testing And they each get $750 just for staying home for FIVE days. That’s good money to appease the lefties!

Walking the coronavirus tightropeOpinion: Australia is one of only a handful of countries that have managed to suppress COVID-19.

That should wake them up. Good on Ya, Mates.. From Texas, USA Talk about destroying your credibility in a single phrase - 'download the COVIDSafe App'

Melbourne public housing units locked down as Victoria records 108 new coronavirus casesResidents of nine public housing estates in inner Melbourne will be required to stay in their homes due to an outbreak of coronavirus cases. Daniel Andrews is now locking people in their apartments CCP style. Any reasonable person must see how that this is out of control authoritarianism that should have no place in our society. This is absolutely absurd. Many of these residents have addictions, mental health issues or experience domestic violence. Some regularly use the safe injecting rooms. How will 5 days in lockdown help this? They are at a great risk of hardship and risk to themselves. I hope they will be individually ensuring the economic and other safety and well-being of those residents

Rent waived for 3,000 Melbourne public housing tenants under hard lockdownVictoria records another 74 new coronavirus cases overnight as Premier Daniel Andrews announces the tenants of nine public housing towers placed under hard lockdown will not have to pay rent for two weeks. They probably never pay their rent anyway. Question for the ABC. I agree both premiers are responsible for each debacle, but during the Ruby Princess debacle, most of the story photos were oh the cruise ship and not of GladysB . Why are you only showing pictures of DanielAndrewsMP here? Is this not a form of media bias? Stands to reason not to charge rent. Prisoners aren’t expected to pay rent.
