Victoria has reported four new local COVID-19 cases as the residents along the state’s northern border prepare for a bubble crackdown.
All cases are linked to Victoria’s current outbreaks and were in isolation for their entire infectious period.
Another infection was detected in a returned traveller in hotel quarantine.
There are 124 active cases in Victoria, down 10 from Sunday.

More than 22,000 test results were received in the 24 hours to Tuesday morning, while about 16,500 vaccine doses were administered at state-run sites during the same period.
It comes as Victoria bans non-essential movement across state lines because of the hovering threat of Sydney’s COVID-19 Delta variant outbreak.
From 11.59pm on Tuesday, border-bubble residents can only state-hop for six reasons – medical care, compassionate purposes, work, education, playing sport or getting vaccinated.
The new measure applies to residents on both sides of the NSW-Victorian border, who must also not travel any further than necessary for that specific purpose.
