PAUL KELLY:We have had more cases overnight. We're now over 11,000 cases in Australia, 438 newly cases in the last 24 hours.

They are mainly in Victoria, 428. Eight in New South Wales, and two cases in WA. In WA, these are cases in quarantine from overseas travel.

There are disturbingly three more deaths recorded overnight, all in people over the age of 70, but that makes 116 Australians that have died of this illness so far and really brings to mind that this is not just numbers, these are real people with families and friends my condolences go to those family and friends.There are still now over 2500 active cases in Australia.
