Bobby, the only reason for the low numbers is Victorians avoid getting tested these days to avoid being shoved into quarantine.

Are you still in quarantine ?

Did I read that one 'permitted worker' spread it around Melbourne?

No - I'm in lockdown -
I can't go more than 5km and with only a few legal reasons.

Do you mean the Chadstone outbreak?

That was a truck driver - a super spreader.

Victoria records two new cases of coronavirus
and zero deaths


Posted 24 minutes ago, updated 12 minutes ago.


The new cases bring the 14-day rolling average for new cases in Melbourne down to 8.7, while in regional Victoria the figure remains at 0.6.

There are now 17 "mystery cases", which is an increase of one on yesterday.

Today's new cases figure is the lowest recorded in Victoria since June.

Interviewed ahead of the release of the numbers, epidemiologist Catherine Bennett of Deakin University says Victorians would have every reason to expect a significant easing of restrictions on Sunday, when the Premier announces the next step on the roadmap to reopening.

"The numbers have been really good, the last few days have been single digits, but most importantly they have been cases that they've known about and in isolation already," Professor Bennett said.

"I'd like to see a lot of step three happen, there might be some compromises around having people in your home that might have to wait a week or two just because we've still got these last cases that we're seeing linked to these outbreaks."

More to come.
