Victoria has recorded a jump in daily coronavirus cases on Thursday to 1,419 infections - up from 1,179 a day earlier - and 10 additional deaths.

In the 12-15 age group 81.3 per cent have received one dose of the vaccine and 76.8 per cent are fully vaccinated.

The rest of the state’s cases were scattered across the Hunter New England, Illawarra Shoalhaven and other parts of NSW. NSW Health listed almost a dozen COVID-19 exposure sites this week after an overseas traveller, who had been in South Africa, tested positive to the Omicron variant of concern. But a fully vaccinated man who tested positive to COVID-19 on the Gold Coast on Wednesday was reportedly infectious in the community for three days.

Fully vaccinated travellers can apply for a border pass which will allow them to fly into Queensland from a COVID-19 hotspot and undergo 14 days in home quarantine. According to government data, more than 86.7 per cent of Queensland's eligible population are partially vaccinated and 76.8 per cent have received two doses.Canberra has reported eight new cases overnight bringing the total number of active cases in the territory to 128.
