Across the country, the epidemic appears to be slowing further, with Australia continuing to put the aggressive epidemic under control and the curve of newly diagnosed cases being depressed.
Whether to ease restrictions on differences
To this end, the new state governor, Gladys Berejiklian, said the state government will review its strict epidemic closure measures once a month, as soon as possible in May.
She said at a news conference this morning that she had to be careful not to give too much hope, but acknowledged that the current epidemic in the new state seemed to be improving.
According to the daily telegraph, several directors of the new state hope to ease restrictions on restaurants, cafes, bars and gyms on may 1st to help small and medium-sized enterprises get out of trouble and gradually help restore economic operation, as long as local residents stick to the rules of keeping social distance.
"I know that these restrictions are working (in controlling the epidemic)," Berrigiclin said. However, it will take us two weeks to get the data, and health experts advise us accordingly. "
"So I don`t want to raise expectations, but at the same time, if health experts think it`s appropriate, we`ll probably relax. "
However, Verkhovna Rous (Daniel Andrews), the Governor of the State of Virginia, stressed that the State would need to maintain phase III control for a longer period of time, and that, if the epidemic were to deteriorate again, stricter phase IV closure measures would have to be implemented.
He claims that strict preventive measures will not be imposed only for a few weeks, but "definitely for a few months ".
At the same time, Prime Minister Morrison warned that "we still have a long way to go" in the fight against the epidemic.
"Our health systems must be ready to meet the challenge. "
