More than 1,000 troops are coming to Victoria to help the state fight the growing coronavirus problem.
"Defence has been providing support to Victoria since April and I'm pleased we're able to rapidly increase our assistance to help Victoria respond to its current COVID-19 circumstances," Defence Minister Linda Reynolds said in a statement.Up to 850 ADF members will provide support to hotel quarantine monitoring and about 200 personnel will provide logistical and medical support for coronavirus testing.
A Victorian man in his 80s became Australia's first coronavirus-related death in more than a month, bringing the state's death toll to 20 and the national toll to 104. Three people have been linked to a Keilor Downs family cluster, two are staff members at Hampstead Dental in Maidstone, one case has been linked to Northland H&M and another has been linked to St Monica's college at Epping.
What are the troops going to do? Shoot them?
This is the second wave so there will be extreme measures in force hence the troops
Is that true?
33 fake plandemic - are falling for this rubbish?
I find it hard to believe all those queuing to be tested have flu symptoms. People need to realise getting tested doesn't protect you.

Good old “33” - must be a coincidence.
There was a two week period where covid didnt even make mainstream news. Allowed to protest without repercussions. No wonder people in the most heavily restricted state lost focus and relaxed. All about mindset.
Deploy common sense
So given that some sort of wanton display of profligacy disgraceful enough to warrant the army being brought in occurred approximately two weeks ago and the only thing that really fits that criteria is the BLM rally are leftists admitting fault yet or..?
Everyone should get used to these outbreaks which will occur in any state. It’s gonna be a long while until a vaccine becomes available if it ever does and keeping the virus under control will be a continuing battle. Politicians should stop politicizing covid.
SBS And its not all BLM protesters fault....right?
Getting all military now Comrad Dan?
Oh dear. Dan knows what a disaster this is quickly turning into following the cedar meats debacle along with the mixed messaging on protests. At least he has the gangs that don’t exist and branch stacking problems under control! 🤫 COVID19Vic auspol
If the protesters wanted to send a message to the rest of the community they didn't fail, if you can mass gather then so can others .. well done on getting the plague ball rolling
All for a boogeyman 'virus' with a 0.004 mortality rate. Couple that with testing procedures that give an 80% false-positive rate, and you've got the BIGGEST scam ever perpetrated on humanity. Behold your 'new normal', your new life living under a fascistic dictatorship. 1984
Troops... What a farce.
Scare mongering. What are the troops going to do? What authority do they have?

Gladys Berejiklian says don't 'interact with people from Melbourne' as Victoria records 17 more coronavirus cases'I call on all organisations not to interact with citizens from Melbourne at this stage,' Ms Berejiklian said on Tuesday. Good. Them thinking their coffee is better than ours. ‘Have you ever had a coffee in Melbourne?’ They say in their coffee snobby accent. Fair call, a large segment of us are deranged lunatic communists, best avoid them if you can. Would do the country a favor just walling off Melbourne permanently
