Victoria, 04 October . With Victoria through the worst of the winter COVID-19 peak, cases trending down and community vaccination rates high, Victoria's purpose-built quarantine hub at Mickleham will soon cease operations. This approach is consistent with other purpose-built quarantine facilities around Australia, and means the facility can be considered for other potential uses a few months ahead of schedule, including emergency accommodation ahead of summer. The Mickleham hub remains an important asset should Victoria need appropriate quarantine facilities in the future to keep Victorians safe from rapidly transmissible diseases.
