More than 100 days after being plunged back into lockdown, Melbourne's restrictions are set to ease. And the Government has promised some gifts for regional Victoria, too.
The Premier has said there would be news on this front today.
On Friday, he said there would be a structured system, with penalties for people who abuse the rules.That's not clear, but at least some changes are expected to be implemented from Monday, as scheduled in the roadmap."Tomorrow will be not every step we had hoped to take tomorrow," Mr Andrews said yesterday.
Retail, hospitality, intrastate travel and some large events were also part of that final step, ahead of moving to 'COVID normal' when there are no new cases for 28 days, no active cases and no "outbreaks of concern" interstate.This is what everyone is desperate to avoid, but nothing is guaranteed.
