Victoria records 507 new local cases - NEWS.com.au

Victoria has recorded 507 new locally acquired Covid-19 cases on Sunday as Dan Andrews prepares to reveal the state’s road map out of lockdown.

Victoria has recorded 507 new locally acquired Covid-19 cases on Sunday as new cases continue to rise throughout lockdown.

It’s the eighth straight day Victoria has recorded more than 400 new cases and fourth in a row above 500 as infections continue to trend upwards.

One new death was also announced on Sunday.

Eleven people have now died with Covid during the latest outbreak, with 831 lives lost since the start of the pandemic.

The health department did not say how many mystery cases there were or how many were in isolation during their infectious period.

Despite the rising cases, Premier Daniel Andrews is set to reveal Victoria’s road map out of lockdown later on Sunday.

Victorians will learn what new freedoms that will be able to enjoy once 70 per cent of the population is double vaccinated, which is predicted to be in late October.

Face-to-face school classes, outdoor dining and extended travel limits are expected to be some of the first restrictions eased.

Greater freedoms will then be put in place once the state reaches 80 per cent of people aged 16 and older with two doses of the vaccine, which is predicted to be in mid-November.

No new cases were recorded in hotel quarantine on Sunday. More than 20,790 primary close contacts remain in isolation in Victoria.

There are now 5262 active cases in the state.
