Victoria has recorded 867 new locally-acquired COVID-19 cases, while the number of cases in recent days has been revised upwards due to a testing error by a third-party software vendor. The state’s toll from the current outbreak has risen to 29 after another four deaths. New South Wales has in turn reported 863 new COVID-19 cases, down from a peak of more than 1,500 during the current outbreak; however, Premier Gladys Berejiklian recently warned of a likely spike in cases when the state’s economy starts to reopen in October. Meanwhile, some lockdown restrictions in Victoria were eased at 11.59pm on 28 September in line with the state’s reopening roadmap, although there will be a snap seven-day lockdown in the regional local government area of Latrobe after four new COVID-19 cases were detected.
