Victorian COVID-19 case could trigger restrictions.
Victorian health officials haven't ruled out beefing up COVID-19 restrictions if there is evidence a Melbourne man infected others in the community.
The man, aged in his 30s, flew into Adelaide from India via the Maldives and Singapore on April 19 before Australia's flight ban began.
After completing quarantine at the Playford Hotel, he returned to his home in suburban Melbourne's Wollert early last week and developed symptoms on Saturday before testing positive on Tuesday.
Melbourne is back on COVID-19 alert after a man tested positive to the virus after being released from hotel quarantine in Adelaide.
