23.01.2022 It’s going to be a hot day - the BoM’s predicting temperatures of more than 38 degrees for most of Victoria. Heatstroke kills. And quickly. Tips to stay cool and safe: ... Drink plenty of water(put some in the freezer for later). Never leave children or pets in hot cars as temperatures rise extraordinarily fast. Keep cool (stay inside - use the fan or air conditioning). Plan ahead - avoid activities the hottest part of the day if possible. Check in on others - particularly older friends, neighbours and relatives. Stay safe. #survivetheheat #heatstroke #staycool

The Andrews Labor Government is committed to progressing gender equality and ending violence against women.

02.01.2022 On the advice of Chief Health Officer Brett Sutton, the current restrictions will remain in place in Melbourne for a further seven days, with some small changes. This will give us a full 14 days one full cycle of the virus to make sure we understand how and where this mutation is moving. For Melbourne, there will still be only five reasons to leave home: shopping for food and supplies, authorised work and study, care and caregiving, exercise, and getting vaccinated. Peop...le will be able to travel further for exercise and shopping, with an expanded 10km radius. Kids in Year 11 and 12 will return to face-to-face learning. That includes students in other year levels who are doing a Unit 3/4 VCE or VCAL subject, while that class is being taught. And a number of outdoor jobs will be added to the authorised list things like landscaping, painting, installing solar panels, or letterboxing. Other restrictions including mask wearing will stay the same. We know this will have a big impact on businesses, which is why we’ll be extending our financial support, with an additional $209 million in grants. At the end of another seven days, we want to be in a position to begin carefully easing restrictions for Melbourne. No one wants to repeat last winter. To stop that from happening, we need every Victorian to follow the rules, to get tested and to get vaccinated when it's your turn. We can do this, but we need to do it together.
