Victoria is enduring the peak of a 'significant' wave of COVID-19, the state's chief health officer has warned. 9News

"We're in a COVID soup," Professor Brett Sutton said at a press conference on Friday afternoon.

Sutton confirmed the 107 deaths reported in today's tally were not all from the past 24 hours, with 105 of those from the past month.Sutton's report explained "the data feed issue was caused by a delay in a third-party reporting deaths to the Department of Health"."Of course, that number is of great concern and is too high," he said.Masks are mandated on public transport in Victoria.

If only they had a vaccine, that actually works 🥴🤷‍♂️

More BS!

No sorry when that Muppet Sutton talks he has zero credibility.

How many people are dying because of Covid-19 now? That is all that matters when considering any kind of action.

Just live the normal life, get over it

9NewsMelb 🥱🥱🥱🥱

So all of those health measures did not work? Shame...Dan put so much effort into them !

Are people still listening to the guy that got everything wrong?

Where’s Dan now? Can’t believe he’s not saving everyone now!?

9NewsMelb I remember when politicians and experts told us that the vaccinations would stop Covid in its tracks. And that was after the 'two weeks to flatten the curve' They don't seem to have got much right.

What have you done to stop the wave? Nothing. Simple mask mandate is not going to happen because you think everyone knows how to do the right thing? Nope. When no mandate there’s no need to mask up. Simple as that.

All media pretending to be news are disgusting and should be behind bars with the other animals

Your news coverage sucks. Showing the crash in the Tour de France Femme as a highlight but nothing about the race or who won the stage was pathetic. There are Australians racing did you know? TourdeFrance tourdefrancefemmes tourdefemmes

Some scruffy bloke in a hoodie stood up and spoke a lot of twot. Move on...

Fith injection sluggo or sixth?

Oh the virus isn't going to peak in qld till the 21st the 'experts' said. Somehow it knows the date

Get back under your rock Sluggo. Best still behinds bars where you belong.

9NewsMelb 😱😱😱😱but the vaccines... they prevent infection/transmission Or they lessen symptoms And now? Subscription service.. 🙄

No one cares about the spicy cough
