Coronavirus Australia live news: COVID-19 death toll climbs to ‘more than 2.5 million’
Victorian restrictions to ease today
A little closer to home now, and Victorians are on tenterhooks waiting to see what restrictions will ease today.
Yesterday, Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews said there would be meetings early today between the Chief Health Officer, his officials and government ministers to make the decision about whether or not it was safe to lift the remaining restrictions.
He seemed optimistic that there would be an announcement before lunchtime today (no, we don’t know when he’s speaking yet).
So why are restrictions easing now? Because it’s been two weeks since the most recent case of coronavirus linked to the Holiday Inn cluster became infectious. So it’s unlikely new cases will emerge now.
