Most Victorian postcodes currently have no active coronavirus cases, the latest Health Department data shows.
You can see the number of active COVID-19 cases in your area, the current infection rate and whether case numbers there have increased or decreased in the past seven days using the map below.As of Thursday, there was only one postcode in Victoria that had more than 20 active infections – 3030, which takes in the suburbs of Werribee, Point Cook and Derrimut. That compares with 91 postcodes with at least 20 active infections during the height of the second wave.
As you can tell from the colour scale on the chart , during the height of the second wave there were areas recording an active case rate of more than 10 per 1000 residents.Last week there were 109 postcodes with at least one active case. Of those, 82 have recorded a decrease in active cases over the past seven days. In 22 of these postcodes there has been no change in cases, while in five there has been a net increase of one active case over the past week.
In the case of 3199 there were no active cases last Thursday, but five as of October 1. And in 3147 , there were no active cases last Thursday and four on October 1.Keep in mind that a decrease in active cases does not mean that no new people have tested positive for coronavirus in an area, only that the number of new infections have been outweighed by the number of people who have recovered from the virus in the past seven days.
Time to speed up through that roadmap of yours DanielAndrewsMP and get Victoria out of depression. Force the borders to reopen only with restrictions on hotspot post codes need apply. Time to lead by example and get this State and country moving again.
