Melbourne is back in lockdown as the city battles a second wave of coronavirus cases.

Victoria is Australia's worst-hit state, recording more than 12,000 of almost 19,000 total cases across the country.

As well as this, 147 of Australia's 232 COVID-19 fatalities have occurred in Victoria.

A State of Disaster has been declared, with authorities confirming that hundreds of people confirmed to have the virus were caught flouting stay-at-home orders.

Brianna Parkins, reporter with Virgin Media Television, joined us to discuss the situation in her homeland.
