I forgot to add :

Victoria is seeing a "welcome stabilisation" of COVID-19 admissions to hospital but more cases are being recorded among young people, health authorities say.
Key points:
More than 72 per cent of the 16 and older population have had both doses of a COVID-19 vaccine
The deaths of nine people take the toll from this outbreak to 212
There will be up to 5,500 fully vaccinated people allowed at Flemington for Derby Day on Saturday as the first large post-lockdown event
Victoria recorded nine further deaths of people with COVID-19.
The Department of Health said there were 1,750 COVID-19 cases in Victoria yesterday, but the state's COVID commander, Jeroen Weimar, clarified two of those were acquired overseas.
New infections were found from 72,858 test results processed on Friday, the day Melbourne and Mildura emerged from lockdown.
Mr Weimar said they were seeing a growth in young people catching COVID.

Re: Melbourne lockdown ends 22nd October 2021
Watched the news tonight.
Everyone was hanging out together.
No one was wearing masks.
I see another runaway infection rate coming.

I have a dream
A world free from the plague of Islam
A world that has never known the horrors of the cult of death.
My hope is that in time, Islam will be nothing but a bad dream

Victoria has recorded the deaths of 11 more people with COVID-19 and 1,935 new cases of the virus ahead of an announcement about the next steps out of lockdown.
More than 73 per cent of Victorians aged 16 and above have now had both doses of a COVID-19 vaccine.
It brings the state closer to an 80 per cent target, which is projected to be hit within the week.
The government is expected to make an announcement today about what freedoms will be granted once the milestone is reached.
Under the current roadmap, all of Victoria will move to the same settings, Melbourne retail and gyms will open and masks will no longer be mandatory outdoors.
Senior ministers met on Saturday night to discuss the next steps.
The ABC understands the border around Melbourne will be dropped from Friday, allowing Victorians to travel anywhere in the state ahead of the Melbourne Cup weekend.

Victoria has recorded 1,461 new local COVID-19 cases and seven deaths as the state moves closer to having more of its restrictions eased this Friday.
Key points:
The number of people who have died during the current Delta outbreak has risen to 230
There were 27,869 doses of vaccine given at state-run centres yesterday, and more at GP clinics
An epidemiologist says hospitalisations in Victoria had been lower than expected
The deaths were a woman in her 20s, a man in his 40s, a man in his 60s, two women and a man in their 80s and a man in his 90s.
There are now 24,831 active cases of the virus in Victoria, and 230 people have died during the current Delta outbreak.
The new cases were detected from 56,905 test results received yesterday.
Unvaccinated Victorians continue to make up the majority of new infections, with two thirds of new cases each day people who have not had their first or second jab, the state's COVID-19 commander Jeroen Weimar said.
"There are around half a million Victorians who are aged over 12 who are not currently protected by any form of vaccine," Mr Weimar said.

Melbourne - Dan's new draconian laws
https://www.theage.com.au/politics/vict ... 59349.html
People found guilty of “intentionally and recklessly” breaching public health orders would face
two years in jail or a $90,000 fine,
under new pandemic laws proposed by the Andrews government.
On Tuesday morning the government tabled its Public Health and Wellbeing Amendment (Pandemic Management) Bill 2021, which would curtail the chief health officer’s powers, giving the premier the authority to declare a pandemic and the health minister the role of making public health orders.

That man is a cretin and in NSW they are allowing dangerous criminals bail. It's all upside down.
