Return to remote learning for students in Victoria as 273 new cases and one death recorded in the past 24 hours
A Victorian man in his seventies has become Australia’s 108th coronavirus fatality, as the state records another day with over 200 coronavirus new cases.57 Victorians are in hospital, 16 of those in intensive care.“If we don't follow the rules, if we don't play our part, then we will simply see this virus continue to spread, and it will be a longer second wave, a more pronounced, a more tragic second wave than it ought to be,” Premier Daniel Andrews said.
Face to face lessons will continue for students in Year 11 and 12 and for students with special needs or who can't learn from home."It is a unique environment and the response is unique and absolutely proportionate to the risk." Victorian chief health officer Dr Brett Sutton said reducing the movement of students is the right call.
