The Victorian government this week announced new rules for the state's businesses with tough new restrictions

Essential food retailing and production has been exempted as have services such as pharmacies and banks.

Home builders feared they would have to shut down completely during stage four restrictions after Premier Daniel Andrews announced that construction workers would only be allowed to attend one work site for six weeks from 11.59pm on Friday. Home builders in Melbourne would still only be allowed five people on site at any one time and crossover shifts will be banned for the next six weeks.Exemptions from the closures announced on Monday include: supermarkets, grocery, food and liquor shops; convenience stores; petrol stations; pharmacies; post offices; hardware, building and garden supplies shops retailing for trade; maternity supplies; motor vehicle parts for emergency repairs only.

Nearly 4 weeks ago a dumb arse like myself was predicting where we were heading with covid in Vic-why couldn’t the ‘smart’ people? Had action been sooner would we really be up shit creek right now? DanielAndrewsMP VictorianCHO

We have taken the wrong approach . The approach we have taken is totally destructive. Let’s admit it !!

The 'HOTEL' history is what it is!! The real problem is the selfish wise arses that have NOT stayed at home !! Take note of QLD'S S.H. was 98% compared to the 100's NOT in VIC.!!🤔🤪😡👎

About time you informed the public and helped understand the stage 4 restrictions. Rather than just saying they are confusing.

Basically the health department cannot leave patients at home with families if tested positive. Otherwise it will cause more family cluster cases.

It was good to hear,from horses mouth, that the 2nd wave was from the bungled quarantine and not from “ruby princess”. Mismanagement of quarantine, inadequate testing rules for returnees, poor audit and inadequate vetting- has led to all the 100+ deaths. CEOs are sacked for less.

Congratulations on providing some information to the people 'confused' about the new laws. Who knew? Media can be informative. Thank you.
