Australia's second-most populous state of Victoria on Friday reported 14 deaths from the coronavirus in the last 24 hours and 372 new daily cases.
The state a day earlier reported 278 cases, its lowest one-day rise in more than three weeks, and eight deaths.
Authorities have been battling to contain a second outbreak of the virus in Victoria, which has seen triple-digit daily new cases for weeks.
