COVID-19 cluster identified at Victorian meat plant

A coronavirus cluster has been identified at a meat packing plant in Victoria.

Eight cases have now been linked to the business, but further infections could emerge, after all employees have been tested.

Health authorities are refusing to name the virus-stricken business but have assured the public contact tracing and deep cleaning process have been undertaken and the Victorian health Minister said concerns over contamination and food safety were unfounded.
