Alert issued for Melbourne Central, Melbourne and Adelaide airports after 2 VIC women, and 1 SA woman test positive today. The 2 VIC cases have previously tested positive, and are said to be towards the end of the infection cycle. That's why they weren't included in todays VIC total.

The pandemic has brought some things to light. Hopefully some good will come of this.

I wasn't going to say that

Testing is steady and increasing slightly.

[Trevor 57]

I am surprised by how the testing numbers still are - a credit to the people showing up and a bigger credit to the tireless workers doing the testing, it must get so monotonous

Getting tested for the sake of it seems like a waste of time and resources. Sure, asymptomatic cases will be caught but a negative result is only relative to that day you got tested.

[Trevor 57]

Exactly, but if they are screening tens of thousands randomly then some positive will show up eventually, if they are out there

If people show up to a hospital ED with cold or flu like symptoms they will be tested, same as if they show up to their local GP, they won't need to be going to a testing station

[Polyal]

No testing needs to trend up, its about the only way you can try and predict anything.

So we are planning to come to VIC for Christmas, guess we will have to buy some masks? Whats the limit on groups?

At the moment masks are still mandatory (not that you'd know it from the media coverage). Groups in private homes are still limited to 2 adult visitors in metro and 10 in regional areas and from 22/11 it will be 10 visitors for metro as well.

From that date (22/11) hospitality venues can increase to 100 indoors and 200 outdoors and there are also increases in the size of other public gatherings (wedding, funerals etc.). Public gatherings will go up to 50 people. Indoor gatherings will still have caps dependant on venue type and a density limit of one person per 4m².

Thanks, so looks like we will be OK, most of the family is in Metro. Shall wait and see what the 22/11 brings and whether work classes any of those area's as hot spots.

That's the catch at the moment, travelling is one thing, its the return quarantining that may make it not viable.

You sure about that one, Russ? The page I linked above says that Vic metro and regional are on the same restrictions and the cap of 2 visitors per day per household applies to both?

correct, we are limited to 2 adults per day per household at the moment, but will increase to 10 as of 22/11

OK, so if I am reading this correctly then people over Christmas can only have 10 in a house at once? And this is from the 22/11.

Yep, that's my understanding, Polyal.
