17 FebWhat does the end of the ‘Circuit Breaker’ lock down mean in terms of restrictions?

Posted on 17 Feb 2021

The key points from the Premier of Victoria’s announcement this morning include:

  • from 11:59pm tonight, we will largely return to the previous rules
  • no longer be four reasons to leave home.
  • five-kilometre restriction will no longer apply
  • Restaurants and retail can reopen. Same too with community facilities, entertainment venues and all other public places – although some additional limits on crowd sizes will be in place
  • Students will be able to head back to school and workers return to workplaces. For offices – both public and private – that means a return to 50 per cent on site
  • no more than five visitors to your home per day.
  • public gatherings limited to 20
  • hospitals and aged care homes– visits limited to one household per day and some specific exceptions
  • masks will be required everywhere indoors except at home and will also be required outside if you can’t physically distance from others.
