Up to 10,000 punters will be allowed at the Melbourne Cup and live music lovers can attend a concert at the Sidney Myer Music Bowl at the end of October as the Victorian government prepares to slowly open up the state. covid19

A key test of Victoria’s preparedness to live under ‘COVID-normal’ will begin on Monday when a trial of vaccine passports is launched.

“That said you actually have to trial some things with the possibility of someone being infectious included, that’s when you find out whether they work. You can see if someone did test positive, you can then assess whether there’s been an issue for people around them.” Regional Victorians will get to test the vaccine passport technology first at 14 businesses in six local government areas from Monday.

The business will continue to run classes outdoors for people who have not yet had a chance to be vaccinated. But it will now be able to accommodate 24 customers inside and 12 outside. Creative Industries and Government Services Minister Danny Pearson said from Monday Victorians would be able to incorporate their COVID-19 digital vaccination certificate with the Services Victoria app, to check in to a venue or event while simultaneously confirming their vaccination status.

Professor Bennett said the concert could give a good insight into how events could operate while the virus is in the community as it was still not be clear if the current outbreak has peaked yet. “Coloured holograms that move can be seen on the check-in screens so venues will know it’s real, making it much harder to fake a check-in screen,” Mr Pearson said.

“I checked my own distance from the racetrack. I think I’m 23 kilometres from Flemington. But the fact is, the VRC has tens of thousands of members and many more than 10,000 would live in that radius,” he said. Racing Minister Martin Pakula says crowds of 10,000 will be able to attend Melbourne Cup carnival race days.“There’s going to be a pretty hard zone between patrons and participants and that’s really important for the security of the industry,” he said.

Clearly the GOVT makes a lot of money from gambling so no wonder they are allowing 10,000 people to the races / it’s a joke I can’t even go to my local cafe that holds 20 people WTF

But make sure your home by 9pm. Ridiculous!

So according to the roadmap only 10 people can gather outdoors in late October but thousands can gather at Myer Music bowl

I bet cases will magically decrease just before Melbourne cup and magically increase after that

Horses over families and kids at schools. So sad. Dan giving the Vic people circus performances. Look over here Victorians....
