The latest figures – confirmed by the Victorian Department of Health on Saturday morning – mark the state’s highest number of cases since the pandemic hit Australian shores last year.The record case numbers come after the Andrews government announced a state-wide vaccine mandate for all authorised workers, with tens of thousands of Victorians facing losing their jobs if they refuse to get the jab.
Victoria Police made more arrests on Friday as demonstrations continued in Melbourne, with hundreds of teachers, child care workers and health care workers gathered to protest against vaccine mandates.
Is it true?
Good 👍
DanielAndrewsMP It is probably time to open MRNA vaxes to all age groups now. Do a super Pfizer /Maderna event, chuck some freebies... Do something to drive up the first dose rate closer to 90%.... PLS do the first in the country to do it
'It's NSW's fault' (a typical Twitter user)
And that’s only the ones that come forward to be counted. 🙄
Lockdowns don’t work Australia. Your country is out of control!
This may increase with opening of international borders.
Lockdown working NOT AT ALL. With thousands rioting in the streets, celebrating the grand final or thinking lockdowns don't apply to them because, you know, religion or 'ME ME right'. So No, lockdowns only work when sensible people follow the rules FOR THE SAKE OF EVERYONE.
Let’s hire Gladys. I hear she might be looking for a new job. She run rings around the nuffer who is holding court at the moment!
It's hit aged care. Here we go again
Start reporting how many vaxed people die too.
Go Dan! Haha. What a shitfight
What a scam.
Who cares? How many are in hospital BECAUSE of covid, not WITH covid? That's the real number we should be monitoring....
It works wonderful, the lockdown. Holy crap!
To all the people criticising the lockdown the reason it’s not working is because idiots aren’t locking down. Where in the lockdown does it say go with thousands of your friends and riot in the city or go around to peoples houses and have a GF party. That’s why it’s not working!
Dan Andrews: 'Hold my beer'.
Lock down working well then 🤣
Maybe there is no such thing as COVIDZero
