Australian State Premier Daniel Andrews is facing scrutiny from Victoria’s right-leaning Liberal party ministers after he pointed to “families” as the main reason the state is experiencing a second wave of COVID-19 cases, while not mentioning the impact of recent protests.
In the last week, Victoria has seen the number of cases of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) virus, commonly known as coronavirus, increase. Andrews announced on June 20 an extension for Victoria’s state of emergency, scaling back on the previously promised easing of social gathering restrictions.
