Victoria records first overseas COVID case in new hotel quarantine system
Victoria has recorded one new overseas-acquired coronavirus case in hotel quarantine since yesterday.
The infection is the first one recorded in the state since Melbourne started accepting international flights again on Thursday.
No new COVID infections were recorded in the community, taking Victoria’s streak of no locally-acquired cases to 43 days.
The hotel quarantine program was shut down and overhauled in mid-February after the virus leaked out from a hotel and sparked a five-day lockdown.
Yesterday, 4,810 vaccine doses were administered in Victoria, taking the total of jabs delivered in the state to 142,130.
More to come.
