Victoria records 57 new COVID-19 cases

Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews says the state has recorded 57 new cases of COVID-19, with 54 being linked to known outbreaks. Mr Andrews said 44 of the cases were in isolation for their infectious period and 41 returned a positive result on their day 13 tests. “When the vast majority of those have been in isolation for their infectious period that’s exactly what we want, that’s exactly the system working as it should work,” he said. “The numbers, yes they’re important but the story that sits behind those numbers is in fact more important than the numbers alone.”
