MELBOURNE, AUSTRALIA - JULY 2: Police Officers check reasons for not being at home in a booze bus style random checkpoint on Camp Road Broadmeadows entering Fawkner during COVID 19 on 2 July, 2020 in Melbourne, Australia. Stage 3 lockdowns have once again been reinstated across 36 Melbourne Suburbs at midnight today after Daniel Andrews announced on the 30th June that Coronavirus cases had spiked following a testing blitz in the affected suburbs. Overnight, and additional 77 cases were uncovered from a total of 26,000 tests. Residents can only leave their home for four reasons; Shopping for food or supplies, care and care giving, exercise and study or work. Anyone caught flouting the rules will be slapped with a $1,652 fine while business could be fined $10,000. Under Victoria’s State of Emergency powers, which have once again been extended to the 19th July, police have unprecedented powers to enforce lockdown laws for both residents as well as visitors entering the ‘no-go’ zones. This comes despite the positive rate of testing remaining stable at 0.3% indicating that the recent spike is more a function of extra testing, rather than an increase in viral spread. The new restrictions will remain in place for four weeks and will extend to the whole state if the situation does not improve. (Photo by Speed Media/Icon Sportswire)
