One more day to claim Victorian isolation payments
The Victorian government has confirmed it is ending the state's COVID isolation payments.
The payment, introduced in July 2020, offered $450 to people who had to stay at home while waiting for PCR test results.
Victoria's Industry Support and Recovery Minister Martin Pakula said the program was no longer needed thanks to the availability of rapid antigen tests.
He said demand for the payments had reduced dramatically, but other support would still be offered.
Tomorrow will be the final day to claim the payment.
