Victoria has recorded 16 new coronavirus cases overnight, with numbers the highest in more than two months after six days of double-digit growth.
Of the 16 new cases, six are linked to known outbreaks, four are in hotel quarantine, five have been detected through routine testing, and one is under investigation, Health Minister Jenny Mikakos said on Monday.
It comes as the Australian Health Protection Principal Committee has advised Australians to avoid travel to and from coronavirus hotspots in Victoria.
