Thanks so much for your time.One death, 216 new cases in Melbourne yesterday Channel Seven that is down from the day before.
We understand that this is all new, but what is your modelling showing you? What are you expecting to happen and how this will play out?DR NICK COATSWORTH: Well, Mon, we know from the previous outbreaks in February and March that the social distancing measures do work.
