Victorian cases hit three-month high, as new test is introduced.
Victoria has recorded double-digit increases in new COVID-19 infections for 12 days running, culminating in 90 new cases over the weekend.
There were 41 new cases on Saturday and 49 on Sunday, the highest daily number for the state since April 2. The majority were locally acquired.
The latest figures contrast with Western Australia, which had one new case, and NSW with three - all people returning from overseas.
Queensland and South Australia had no new cases.
A religious feast that broke restrictions during Victoria’s strict coronavirus lockdown has been revealed to be behind one of Melbourne’s biggest family clusters. It occurred despite a campaign to warn multicultural communities of the virus. https://t.co/PbG8NnstoG
