AUSTRALIA: The AFR has reported that "Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews has
declared a Tier 2 state of emergency with the chief medical officer warning a
Tier 3 emergency - which could force the closure of schools, universities,
workplaces and major events - could be reached within the next four weeks. Mr
Andrews said while "that is not yet" it remains a "matter of when, not if" and
they will enforce a state of emergency with police and penalties." There are
significant powers to limit liberty and significant penalties if people flout
those restrictions, he told a press conference on Wednesday morning."
