Victoria is experiencing an increase in COVID-19, influenza and Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) cases as the state heads into winter.
Hospitalisations for people with COVID-19 have increased by 30 per cent in the last week, prompting a warning from authorities.
Wastewater testing is also showing high levels of COVID-19 across the state.
Notifications of the flu and RSV have also increased by 30 per cent.
The latest NSW respiratory surveillance report is showing low reports for COVID-19 and influenza but high activity for RSV.
COVID-19 notifications also remain low in each state.
Chief Health Officer Clare Looker has issued a warning for Victorians to take steps to protect themselves, and vulnerable community members, from the illnesses.
The steps include wearing a mask, getting vaccinated for COVID-19, letting fresh air indoors, taking RAT tests for COVID-19, staying at home if you have symptoms and taking antiviral tablets if you are eligible.
