Rapid antigen tests are available in stores from tomorrow.

You may have heard a bit about them, but here's everything you need to know: coronavirus.vic.gov.au/rapid-antigen-… Image
👉 Rapid antigen tests can only tell you if you are *likely* to have COVID-19. In Victoria, a standard (PCR) test at a testing centre is still needed to confirm if you have COVID-19.
👉 If you test positive from a rapid antigen test, then you must isolate, get tested with a standard (PCR) test, and stay isolated until you get your results.

Congratulations, Victoria.

More than 80 per cent of us aged 16+ are now fully vaccinated and we thank each and every one of you for playing your part.
Let’s keep encouraging those who are eligible to protect their family and community, so we can hit our next double dose milestone of 90 per cent of Victorians aged 12 and up.
👉 If you’re not fully vaccinated, you can walk in today to selected pop-up clinics across the state: coronavirus.vic.gov.au/vaccination-ce…

Some Victorians are still experiencing power outages after recent storms. If you are in this situation, here are a few things to think about ⬇️
⚠️Electrical appliance safety
If you are experiencing interruptions to your power, turn off all electrical appliances (especially those that have heating elements) and unplug ‘surge-sensitive’ equipment such as computers.
Keep one light switch turned on so you know when the power returns.
If you have a battery-operated radio turn it on and listen to a local radio station for information.

Our hospitals are experiencing significant demand due to COVID-19, so it’s important you stay well.
October through December is thunderstorm asthma season. If you have asthma or hay fever, now is the time to get ready, so you can manage any symptoms and stay out of hospital. Image
You can protect yourself and those in your care by following these simple steps:
▪️ Monitor the epidemic thunderstorm asthma risk forecast on the VicEmergency app.
▪️ Don’t be outdoors in a storm, especially the winds that precede them.
▪️ Take your preventative medication as directed, even when you’re symptom free.
▪️ Carry your reliever and know how to manage an asthma attack. Follow your asthma action plan or use asthma first aid.

Thanks to the huge efforts of Victorians to protect themselves, their loved ones and their community, new COVIDSafe settings are now in place across Victoria. Image
✔️ You will need to show evidence of being fully vaccinated to visit many services, workplaces and venues that are opening, unless you have a valid medical exemption, or you’re under 16.
✔️ Remember, face masks are still mandatory indoors for people 12 and over unless an exception applies. Outdoors it is recommended you wear a mask if you cannot physically distance.
