COVID-19 Updates

Summary of restrictions in Victoria

There are things we can all do to make ourselves and others safer. As you live and work, remember these COVIDSafe principles:

• Face masks are no longer required in most indoor settings but they are still recommended. Carry a mask when leaving home.

• We strongly recommend that you wear a face mask if you have any COVID-19 symptoms, are with people who may be vulnerable to COVID-19, and are outdoors and cannot physically distance.

• Everyone aged 8 years and above is still required to wear a face mask in certain settings unless an exception applies. Read the Face Masks page for information about where masks are required.

• Get your next COVID-19 vaccine dose as soon as you are eligible. Get vaccinated to protect yourself, your loved ones and your community. If you haven’t had at least two doses of the vaccine, you’re at a much higher risk of becoming seriously ill or going to hospital. It’s strongly recommended you have three doses of the vaccine for the best protection. Book an appointment today.

• Testing and isolation protocols have changed.

  • If you have COVID-19, or you are a contact of someone who does, read Your COVID Checklist for what to do. You must follow the checklist.

  • If you have symptoms or are a household (or household-like) contact of someone with COVID-19, you must get tested.

  • Most people should use a rapid antigen test as their first option to get tested. If you test positive on a rapid antigen test, you must report your result and isolate because you are a case.

• You can reduce risks by maintaining 1.5 metre distance from others where possible, using hand sanitiser and practising good hygiene.

• Ventilation and air filtration helps. Consider opening windows to let the fresh air blow through or catching up with friends outside.

• Remember to check in where required using the Service Victoria app.
