Victoria has recorded no new locally acquired Covid-19 infections on Wednesday.
The state’s health department announced zero new local cases about 8.30am in an astonishing sign the Delta outbreak has been quashed, as Victoria emerges from its fifth lockdown.
Chief health officer Brett sutton celebrated the milestone by tweeting an image of Aussie Olympic champion Ariarne Titmus’ coach Dean Boxall’s viral celebration after she won gold.
Just 3000 of more than 20,000 primary close contacts from the state’s latest outbreak remain in isolation as hundreds are freed back into the community each day.
Professor Sutton said 536 people were cleared as primary close contacts on Tuesday as the number of exposure sites also continues to dwindle, and had fallen to 45 on Tuesday morning.
No new exposure sites have been added since Saturday.
Victorians also set a new daily record for QR code check-ins over the weekend, with 6.1 million people scanning in at venues on Saturday.
It beat the previous record of 5.6 million on July 15, which was just before the state’s fifth Covid-19 lockdown.
Almost 11 million people checked in across both Saturday and Sunday.
Victoria has recorded 220 cases linked to the two outbreaks that jumped the border from Sydney’s deadly Delta cluster – one from a team of Sydney removalists who transited through the state and the other from a family who returned to Melbourne’s north from a NSW red zone.
No new cases were recorded in hotel quarantine, with the number for active infections in the state falling to 99 – down from 124 on Tuesday.
