âHowever, with a relatively small number of new cases, the excellent work that our contact tracing teams have done, the work of lab technicians and so many other people, we are very well placed, but we wonât know, and we wonât be able to make a final call on that until some time tomorrow.â
Victoria recorded two more locally acquired cases of coronavirus on Tuesday, both linked to the Melbourne Airport Holiday Inn quarantine hotel cluster, which has grown to 19 people. The two new local cases confirmed in Victoria on Tuesday are close household contacts of a previously known case and have been self-isolating so are ânot unexpected positivesâ, Mr Andrews said.
