Australia has recorded its first day without a Covid-19 death in two months, as states began to lift restrictions amid growing confidence that a second wave of infections has been contained.
While officials said there were 50 Covid-19 cases in the past 24 hours, a small increase from a day earlier, Australia reported no fresh fatalities for the first time since July 13.
Most of the new cases were in Victoria, Australia’s second most populous state, which has accounted for about 75 per cent of the country’s Covid-19 infections.
