Australia’s second most populous city has begun a six-week lockdown following a spike in new coronavirus cases, as states around the country tightened internal borders to prevent a second wave sweeping the country, Reuters reported.
Australia has avoided the high casualty numbers of other countries to the Covid-19 pandemic, which has killed 544,055 people globally, but an outbreak in Melbourne prompted the state of Victoria to impose “self isolate” orders for the city’s estimated five million.
