reopen from Wednesday and hospitality businesses are likely to reopen with strict density limitsMasks are likely to remain mandatory indoors and outdoors and visitors to the home will remain off-limits, government sources have told the ABC.The Victorian Chamber of Commerce and Industry has already flagged its concern about a slow easing of restrictions, saying overly strict density limits would make it too difficult for some businesses to operate.

"Provided we all continue to QR code check-in, we should be able to accelerate out of lockdown five and hopefully get to a point where we can trade viably again."
