Well done Australia! For the first time in over 250 days, we’ve recorded 3 days in a row of no locally acquired cases of #COVID19 across Australia. However, now is not the time to become complacent – we know how quickly this virus can spread – so please keep being #COVIDSafe.
Yesterday there were no new cases and no lost lives reported. Cases with unknown source are down, as is the 14 day rolling average in Melb, this remains stable in regional Vic. There is more info here: dhhs.vic.gov.au/averages-easin…#COVIDVicData
