How Victoria's coronavirus restrictions will change from June

ABC  

Victorians are being told that from next month, the message is shifting from "stay home" to "stay safe", as a raft of coronavirus restrictions ease. Professor Sutton defined a "space" But the overriding rule of 4 square metres of space per customer still applies, so it's possible some smaller venues won't be able to host the full 20 people. Community sport will be able to run from June 1 provided it's held outdoors or with no more than 20 people in undivided spaces, is non-contact and people are able to play while respecting 1.5 metre physical distancing. If community transmission rates remain low and testing rates high, indoor gyms and fitness centres will be able to open their doors again on June 22, with no more than 20 people per space and up to 10 people involved in a group or activity at any one time. "I think indoor gatherings of that nature, where it's not table service, it's … very challenging to maintain social distance and where you've got alcohol being consumed — let's be clear — at a higher level than it might be in other settings … I think that those types of venues are going to be the very last venues to reopen," Mr Andrews said.
