Australia is coming closer to the day it records no new coronavirus cases

Sydney: Victoria is the only state to record new cases of coronavirus this weekend, bringing closer the day when Australia records zero additional cases.

The 11 new cases reported in Victoria on Saturday took the national total to 7185.

Just 22 of the 475 active cases nationwide are being treated in hospital.

That hasn’t stopped hundreds of demonstrators in capital cities claiming the COVID-19 pandemic is a “scam”.
