Victoria is the third state or territory — after New South Wales and the Australian Capital Territory — to begin living with Covid-19 after reaching its target of a 70% adult double vaccination rate.
Victoria's 6.7 million residents can now leave their homes for any reason, though they'll need to show proof of full vaccination to enter public venues. Restaurants can cater for limited numbers of diners indoors, students are back in schools, and there's no longer a 9 p.m. curfew in Melbourne. But the beginning of Victoria's reopening highlights a stark divide in Australia. While more than half of the country is highly vaccinated and living with the virus, the other 11 million people are living in states with lower vaccination rates that are largely free of COVID-19.
In the meantime, they remain on guard to keep the virus out. In Queensland on Thursday, a rare breach produced the state's first local positive case in weeks. A man in his 30s who had recently returned from Victoria had spent as many as 10 days while infectious in the community and was so unwell with COVID-19 that he had trouble speaking to contract tracers.
The country is slowing reopening — some parts faster than others, and states are looking to each other — and outside — for guidance.
