Premier Daniel Andrews confirmed the death of the man in his 40s was the youngest death from the virus since the beginning of the pandemic in the state

On Victoria’s deadliest COVID-19 day, Premier Daniel Andrews confirmed the death of a man in his 40s was the youngest death in the state from the virus since the pandemic began.Mr Andrews said it was not yet clear if the man had an underlying condition, but that information would be made available once more data had been gathered, and if the family was comfortable with it being released.

Seven of the overnight COVID-19 deaths were related to aged care outbreaks, while three were not related to the aged care sector. Ambulance Victoria CEO Associate Professor Tony Walker said if there is an increased need for ambulance assistance as the pandemic continues, it would have a “significant impact” on how the health system functions.

“We've worked with Defence closely, particularly during the bushfires, and the relationship we found working with them is phenomenal,” Associate Professor Walker said.

DanielAndrewsMP JennyMikakos im sick and tired of you addressing every press conference with the holy than thou attitude....step aside and let the ADF clean up the cesspool of a state youve left us in

Geez......Dandemic Dan is certainly mounting the deaths up.

I am not a labor voter and I am not a Vic but Jeez I feel sorry for Dan Andrews 😞he just wants thickvicks to do as they are told 🤷🏼‍♀️

All Andrews fault and there is no argument against it

That probably makes 4 deaths for under 60 age group. How many have died WITH Corona and how many BECAUSE of Corona? This question must always be asked.

DimwitDan is at it again. The longer he stays premier the more accountable he will be. Shame we don’t have man slaughter legislation for politicians.

The number of tests processed was significantly higher than any other day. Had a normal test rate occurred this would have been a low 300 day and we’d have felt better but have 150 cases still lurking.

Dan Andrews is the worst premier in Australia right now. He has totally failed in handling this pandemic.

We need Covid TV ads..similar to graphic selt belt road safety ad! STAT! stopCovid

Hopefully 14 days after masks, numbers will lower 😔🦠😷🇦🇺 CovidVic

Maybe Daniel, it is your recommendation of wearing a sock or scarf on your face to protect others?

ResignDanielAndrews resignDanAndrews

why aren't we giving hcq to every positive patient as early as possible. They are letting people die when there is an effective treatment option.

The only way I know it's the weekend is because Dan wears his North Face jacket.

Lock us down!!! 😂

Can we know his health history?

Was the 40 year old fit and healthy?

COVID19 agedcare dementia Can preventative health do better? In addition to preventing infection, are micronutrient levels in the population adequately monitored? Is inflammation (which correlates with HRV) adequately monitored with medically approved wearable technology? .

Why should Principals, teachers, school staff and VCE students continue to jeopardise their health when their is an alternative of remote learning? The AEU needs to call for strike action. prioritizehealth VICTEACHERSTRIKE

springst Channel 7 will give Michael O’Brien another 10 second grab saying it’s all Daniel Andrews fault?

Andrews has lost the plot.......as he continues blaming Victorians.

Victoria records 10 deaths, 459 new coronavirus cases as second wave nears 'halfway mark'A man in their forties is among 10 new COVID-19 related deaths reported in Victoria, the largest single-day death toll recorded in Australia. Seven of the deaths are linked to outbreaks in the aged care sector. Wow! So one person under 60 out of all of them. Better close the world down. 🙄 Your the Media! So show us your evidence? You realise the Media are as trusted as much as a Royal male with children? So us the death certificates! isn't that what journalists do? Had I wanted government fear porn I'd go hear the train station loud speakers. Are you sure SBS? I recall the SBS and others writing about the Queensland man in his 30's that died from covid-19 that didn't actually die from covid-19?
