So far, the state government has mainly released COVID-19 data based on local government areas, although it some times provides suburb-specific case data for notable outbreaks in its daily press conferences.
Ms Mikakos said on Monday that the government has an "action plan" to ramp up testing in specific suburbs.Starting Monday, widespread testing will be conducted at Keilor Downs Secondary College, the epicentre of a major cluster in Melbourne's west, and Albanvale Primary School which has reported positive cases in recent days.An additional pop-up clinic has opened in Keilor Downs and the the Deer Park drive-through testing site is now also open on weekends.
"So those individuals who live in the hotspot locations, they can continue to go to work if they need to go to work in person," she said.Outgoing federal Chief Medical Officer Brendan Murphy said on Radio National on Monday morning that people should also reconsider non-essential group gatherings in those six areas.
"But if there are plans to meet with significant numbers of other people, that is really worthy of reconsideration because we don't want seeding into areas outside of the current areas."
No one needs to be further discouraged from traveling to these places!

3 people in Darebin, how is that a hotspot? As of June 2018, it had a population of 161,609! So how can 3 cases be considered a hotspot?
Might be a bit of a challenge with all the tradespeople (at a minimum) coming out of these regions for 'essential' work each day
pantherman45 a better map than mine. Really damning for those outer NW areas. I believe 2 of the 3 Darebin ones are to do with a shop in Northland (which remains shut as of yday)
What/who has caused the spike in cases in these particular suburbs❓ Is it protestors❓ Is it people returning from overseas❓ Melbourne DanielAndrewsMP Ageinvestigates 3AW693 vicpol victoria macsween_prue TripleMMelb VictorianLabor
