News article: Victoria will bring back tougher coronavirus restrictions, limiting gatherings in homes to five people, in a bid to address a recent spike in case numbers.

Statement from Victoria's Premier:

• "around half of [Victoria's] cases since the end of April have come from transmission inside someone’s home."

• "From 11:59pm on Sunday, the number of visitors you can have at your home will reduce to five."

• "Outside the home, families and friends can meet in groups up to ten."

• "restaurants, pubs, auction halls, community halls, libraries, museums and places of worship will all stay at a maximum of 20 people in any one space until 12 July."

• "Businesses that were set to open on Monday like gyms, cinemas, theatres and TABs can do so – but again, only with a maximum of 20."

• "Community sport for kids and non-contact competition for adults can proceed as planned."

• "those who can work from home [should] continue to do so at least until 31 July."
