Australia’s primary health officers have highly dissuaded travel to and from 6 Victorian city government locations known to be hotspots for brand-new coronavirus cases.
The Australian Health Protection Principal Committee (AHPPC) has recommended versus travel to and from Hume, Casey, Brimbank, Moreland, Cardinia and Darebin up until control of neighborhood transmission has actually been validated.
The committee– that includes all the state chief health officers and is chaired by Australia’s primary medical officer, Brendan Murphy– says the advice is based on figures which reveal more than 83 percent of brand-new COVID-19 cases in Australia in the past seven days have actually been recorded in Victoria.
Almost one in five Victorians (18 per cent) live in the 6 hotspots.
Victoria saw a surge in coronavirus cases with 19 new cases taped over night Sunday— the state’s fifth day in a row of new coronavirus cases in the double digits.
Health authorities say most of the state’s brand-new cases are connected to clusters– often within extended families– which has developed worrying hotspots in parts of the state.
