Victoria’s lockdown will be extended past Wednesday as the state continues to try to get ahead of its COVID-19 outbreak.
As the state recorded 16 new local cases on Monday, Premier Daniel Andrews said a decision on the length of the lockdown would be announced on Tuesday. “I know this is not the news people want to hear,” he said.
“We will not be ready.”
During a COVID-19 update on Monday, Mr Andrews said the state had dodged “weeks and weeks” of lockdown by moving swiftly with restrictions, as Chief Health Officer Brett Sutton urged some patrons at the recent MCG Carlton versus Geelong match to get retested.
