Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews says the Government will work with employers to get a quarter of their workforces tested for coronavirus on a weekly basis, and that employers will want to "stay vigilant" to remain open.
Here is a summary of what happened on Wednesday:
- Victoria aims to test a quarter of staff working in high-risk workplaces every week.
- NSW records fifth consecutive day with no locally acquired infections.
- Queensland records zero new coronavirus cases, announces plans for massive PPE stockpile.
- Victoria records 13 new coronavirus cases, four deaths as Melbourne's 14-day average continues falling.
