Moscow/Sputnik: More than 40 new coronavirus cases and nine new deaths from COVID-19 were registered in Australia’s southeastern state of Victoria in the past 24 hours, the Victoria Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) reports as the state prepares for a gradual easing of coronavirus restrictions.

"#COVID19VicData for 7 September, 2020. There were 41 new cases reported and 9 lives lost," the Victoria DHHS said on Twitter on Monday.

A day earlier, there were 63 new cases and 5 new coronavirus-related deaths in Victoria. The state’s total death toll stands at over 660, while the total number of confirmed cases has surpassed 19,500.

Victoria Premier Dan Andrews said on Sunday that coronavirus restrictions were going to be eased in the state starting from September 13.

According to the Victoria government website, the first step of restriction easing will include expanded social interaction. The second step will include "social bubbles," visitors and a staged return of education, as well as the reopening of outdoor pools and playgrounds.
