There were no new positive coronavirus cases in Shepparton on Thursday amid testing chaos, but a metro community outbreak continues to grow.
On a day when six new coronavirus infections and no deaths were announced, Leader’s analysis of Department of Health and Human Services postcode data found the virus returned to the 3185 postcode — which takes in Elsternwick, Gardenvale, Ripponlea — part of the Elwood community outbreak.
The 3081 postcode — which takes in Bellfield, Heidelberg Heights and Heidelberg West/RGH — still has the state’s highest number of active cases with 13 — up one from Wednesday.
The 3030 (Werribee, Point Cook, Quandong, Corcoroc, Werribee South) postcode, which has 11 infections — is the only other Victorian postcode with more than eight active cases.
Two of Thursday’s new cases are confirmed as linked, one to the Chadstone outbreak and the other to a community outbreak in Elwood.
Two cases are provisionally linked to a case from the Box Hill Hospital outbreak, one is being investigated for links to a single case and one is being investigated for links to a previous case at Woolworths QV who most recently worked a nightshift while the store was closed to the public.
