Category 2 & category 3 essential surgery has been banned across the state for 21 days, with no roadmap for recommencement.
The Victorian Code Brown in public hospitals has been in place for 8 days.
It’s estimated by Government that it will last for 28-42 days.
The Code Brown does not apply to private hospitals, but the Government’s essential surgery lockdown does.
