Positive coronavirus tests in aged care residents close two more nursing homes in Melbourne

Deputy Chief Health Officer Annaliese van Diemen said seven new cases of the virus had been recorded in the state since Monday, including two in separate aged care homes. Dr van Diemen said one of the aged care cases was a resident at Lynden Aged Care in Camberwell in Melbourne's east. 'The resident is being treated in isolation in a metropolitan hospital,' Dr van Diemen said. 'Residents and families have been informed by the facility.' She said cleaning and contact tracing was already underway.
