Vic goes sixth day with no local COVID-19
Victoria has gone a sixth consecutive day without recording a locally-acquired case of coronavirus.
The health department on Tuesday confirmed there were two new COVID-19 cases in hotel quarantine, bringing the total number of active infections in the state to 25.
Some 22,149 tests were processed in the 24 hours to Tuesday morning, while 15,451 Victorians received a vaccine dose at one of the state-run hubs.
Just five of the active cases were locally acquired and authorities are confident they have stamped out outbreaks of COVID-19 in the state.
They have flagged a possible easing of mask-wearing rules and increasing capacity at stadiums and theatres on Thursday, though plans to return to "COVID-normal" settings could be delayed due to outbreaks in NSW and Queensland.
