Victorian Government COVID-19 | DHHS – Get Tested | Stakeholder Pack

Our case numbers are at the highest they have ever been. Hospital admissions are growing, and sadly, in recent days we have had fatalities.

It’s clear we are on the cusp of our second wave – and we cannot let this virus cut through our communities any more than it already is. It is against this backdrop that across Melbourne and Mitchell Shire, Stage 3 “Stay at Home” restrictions have been reinstated.

Now, more than ever we need all Victorians – no matter where they are – to be vigilant; adhere to physical distance guidelines, maintain hygiene practices and crucially they must get tested if they have any symptoms, and stay at home.

No matter where we live, we all have a crucial role to play in getting on top of this. And we need everyone to help.
Staying Apart Keeps Us Together, and our response to this ‘public health bushfire’ is about being a community.

We must all play a part in accepting the restrictions, adhering to them, and helping to reduce the spread of the virus.

We must all play a part in talking to our family, friends, neighbours, and communities to ensure that they all understand what is at stake and what they have to do – no matter how hard.

The behaviour is clear: Any symptoms – get tested.

As always, the campaign directs people to the single source of clarity, the Victorian Government’s coronavirus website for current information and updates: vic.gov.au/CORONAVIRUS
