Wastewater warning issued to residents

COVID-19 has been detected in wastewater in local suburbs.

The Victorian Department of Health issued a warning to people in Aspendale, Aspendale Gardens, Bonbeach, Carrum, Chelsea, Chelsea Heights, Edithvale, Mordialloc, Patterson Lakes, and Seaford last week. COVID-19 was detected in the wastewater of those suburbs between 23 and 26 August.

An Edithvale cafe was named a tier two COVID-19 exposure site this week. Anyone who attended The Crowded Hour at 264 Nepean Highway, Edithvale between 7.15am and 8am on 25 August must get tested immediately and isolate until a negative result comes back. The exposure site is related to a positive case associated with Edithvale level crossing removal works.

There is just one confirmed COVID-19 case among Kingston residents as of 30 August.

At a media conference on 31 August, Premier Daniel Andrews said that the state’s vaccination program was ramping up. “On vaccines, some 32,162 vaccines were administered yesterday in the state clinics, an 8 per cent increase on the same day the week before. I  thank each of those people for making an appointment and turning up and getting their shot. It has never been more important to drive up the first and second dose vaccine rates. (…) This weekend just passed we saw a 20 per cent increase in the number of people getting a jab.”

“As more vaccines  become available throughout September, October and November, we will reach those national plan targets of 70 and 80 per cent and that will be meaningful to the way we live our lives,” he said.
