Got my booster today.

Was lucky to get a cancelled appointment at a local clinic.

Earliest I could get in at a state run hub was 17 January

It will become mandatory in Victoria for those with a positive RAT to report the result through an online form or by phone.

A new online reporting system will launch on the Department of Health website on Friday.

As well as reporting their probable infections, they will also be able to access care if needed.

The probable cases will be reported alongside the daily confirmed COVID-19 figures.

Density limits will return in Victoria in a bid to try and slow the growing spread of the Omicron variant. They come into effect from 11.59pm on Thursday.

Hospitality venues including bars, cafes and restaurants and entertainment venues will have a density limit of one person per two square metres.

The exception to this limit will be indoor seated cinemas and theatres, due to the fact masks must be worn in those settings.

NSW Premier Dominic Perrottet says the state faces "a difficult few weeks" after reintroducing several COVID-19 restrictions to battle the increasing number of cases and hospitalisations.

From tomorrow, elective surgeries will be paused, and singing and dancing will be banned in hospitality venues, entertainment facilities and major recreation facilities. This prohibition will not apply for weddings.

Major events may also be subjected to risk assessments from health authorities and could be postponed at their discretion.

The adjustments are expected to be lifted on January 27.
