MELBOURNE - Australia’s Victoria state reported a record rise in new COVID-19 cases and deaths on Wednesday, as it prepared to close much of its economy to control a second wave of infection that threatens to spread across the country.
In Victoria, the state government imposed a night curfew and tightened restrictions on people’s movements across greater Melbourne on Sunday, and ordered most businesses to stop trading from Wednesday night in a massive blow to the national economy. Victoria accounts for about a quarter of the nation’s economy and has nearly two-thirds of Australia’s almost 19,500 cases.
After two months of no community transmission in the state, Queensland now has at least three such cases, the deputy premier said. Travelers returning from Victoria to NSW through Sydney airport will be required to self-quarantine in hotels for 14 days from midnight on Friday, the NSW government said.
From these 700K deaths, what is real?
