Regional Victoria will be released from lockdown at 11.59pm today. Schools and hospitality venues will reopen but private gatherings in homes remain banned coronavirus COVID19 SpringSt
The changes to stay-at-home restrictions for regional Victoria come after the state recorded 11 new locally acquired cases on Monday., with at least 106 of the state’s new cases in the community during their infectious period.
Victorian Chief Health Officer Brett Sutton said it was right to ease restrictions in regional Victoria given the absence of both exposure sites and wastewater detections in recent days.“Some protections for regional Victoria relate to Melburnians knowing what they need to do. So not travelling to regional Victoria, unless they’re permitted to, unless there’s an absolute reason to do so.
The Joan Kirner building is on the campus of Sunshine Hospital, where COVID-19 vaccinations and tests are also being carried out. It’s the first time a hospital has been added as an exposure site in this outbreak.
