Victoria could this week see coronavirus case numbers return to a level not seen since early July if current trends continue, the state's Chief Health Officer says.

Victorians have been told face coverings will likely be a feature of any eased restrictionsIt comes as authorities foreshadow mask-wearing will remain a feature of life in Victoria for some time to come.

The number of people in hospital is also stabilising, although 36 remained in intensive care on Saturday. "If we hold that pattern, we keep this lockdown really tight for these last remaining weeks … that's definitely possible."Professor Sutton said he expected face coverings, which are now mandatory for most Victorians, would remain a part of life while there was still community transmission of the virus.

Cabrini have issued a statement denying an outbreak at Malvern hospital. Has this been fact checked ?

Andrews needs to resign

Without a change of government and without Victorian's changing their mindset, nothing will change for the better. Victoria's Marxist/socialist experiment has failed (like socialist policies always do). Less ideology and more practical, common sense governance.

Maybe. Just maybe. THIS is what they needed to pay attention?!!

The suicide trend isn't looking so good. Neither are the bancrupcies.... But since Andrews only cares about one metric...... The number hes killed from covids second wave are plateauing.
