Key points: The Health Department has released a list of 27 locations where people may have been exposed to coronavirus Six new coronavirus cases were confirmed in Victoria yesterday, bringing the state's total number to 27 Victoria's chief health officer said the coronavirus situation was "evolving rapidly, and we expect to see more and more cases of COVID-19" Locations and events listed include Sunday night's T20 Cricket World Cup Final, the Rebels vs Lions rugby game at AAMI Park on Saturday evening, and La Trobe University's Bundoora campus. In relation to the T20 Cricket World Cup Final at the MCG, which drew crowds of more than 86,000 people, authorities specified the exposure site as the MCC Members Level 2. Other locations include train stations, restaurants, supermarkets, and parks, while a number of overseas flights landing in Melbourne were also listed. A person who attended the Golden Plains music festival south-west of Melbourne on Sunday has also since been diagnosed with the virus, Victoria's Health Minister confirmed. Anyone who was at any of the sites should be aware of their health and seek medical advice if they become unwell. La Trobe University sites 'deep cleaned' after student infected Earlier, La Trobe University announced a student at its Bundoora campus had tested positive for COVID-19. The university said in a statement this afternoon that on the advice of the Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) the campus would remain open. "The affected individual is a La Trobe student who has attended class within the past week," the statement said. "The student is receiving medical treatment and the University has offered its full support to the student via the Health Department. "All staff and students with whom the student came into contact have been identified and asked to self-isolate. "The limited number of areas the student visited last week have been deep cleaned according to DHHS guidelines."

Victorian situation 'evolving rapidly' Six new coronavirus cases were confirmed in Victoria yesterday, bringing the state's total number to 27. The new cases include six men aged between 30 and 70, who are recovering at home in isolation. Five of the men had been overseas recently and one is a close contact of a confirmed case. At a press conference on Thursday afternoon, deputy chief health officer Annaliese van Diemen said eight Grand Prix team members were being tested for coronavirus today, up from two yesterday. Dr van Diemen said the results were to come through by the end of the day. Federal Health Minister Greg Hunt said the national security committee had asked the Federal Government whether travel from Europe should be banned. Mr Hunt said the Prime Minister had referred all questions from the National Security Committee about people returning from Europe to the medical experts at the Australian Health Protection Principles Committee. "We will continue to follow their medical advice," he said. Mr Hunt also said there was no case for major events to be cancelled but that each country and even state had different circumstances. Victoria's Health Minister Jenny Mikakos, when asked whether the Government was reconsidering letting the F1 go ahead, said "we have been acting on the advice of the chief health officer and the advice to date is there has been no need to cancel mass gathering events". Ms Mikakos said the cancellation of mass gatherings would happen after Victoria had developed significant community transmissions but at this point, there had not been a single case of unknown community transmission in Australia. Victoria's chief health officer, Brett Sutton, said the situation was "evolving rapidly". "For the virus to spread, extended close personal contact is most likely required," he said. "But visitors to locations where cases have been should be aware of the signs and symptoms of COVID-19." Close personal contact is at least 15 minutes face-to-face or more than two hours in the same room.
