Mr Andrews announced the variation on step three restrictions at a press conference yesterday, stressing the state could not rush opening up after some of the world's harshest restrictions.
The easing of restrictions come as Victoria recorded two new COVID-19 cases yesterday, with the 14-day rolling average down to 7.5. Also from November 1, two people can visit other people's homes once a day, and the four reasons to leave home will be removed.A maximum of 20 people will be allowed for outdoor religious gatherings. A maximum of 10 people will be allowed at weddings and 20 mourners at funerals.
Melbourne's new 25km radius travel rule will be in place until at least November 1, where it will then be reviewed. However, the premier said he expects it will remain in place for "a bit longer" to prevent large numbers of people gathering across the city."What it means is that as so many cities across the world head into what is going to be a deadly winter, we in Melbourne and across Victoria are well-placed to have a COVIDSafe summer and a COVID normal 2021."
