WALEED ALY:For more on these latest developments, we’re checking in with Alison McMillan, who’s Australia’s Chief Nursing Officer.
Allison, given Victoria had the tightest restrictions, the most conservative approach in the country, why is this happening there?ALISON MCMILLAN:Well, I think we always knew that there was the potential for community outbreaks.
We've been very successful with our suppression but here we have another example of that. I think that it's something we're going to continue to see until we've got a vaccine and this time it's in Victoria.
Previously we've seen some outbreaks in New South Wales.STEVE PRICE:Alison, New South Wales has got a bigger population and has had more cases than Victoria.
