A woman in her 80s has died with COVID-19 in Western Australia as the state approaches its Omicron peak, posting a record 6062 new daily cases.
There are now 28,772 active infections and 123 cases in hospital, including two in intensive care.
Case numbers had declined slightly over the weekend, likely reflecting a drop in testing numbers.
Tuesday's case numbers suggest the number of daily infections could soon hit the 10,000 mark, at which point the Omicron outbreak is expected to peak.
Hospitalisations are not expected to reach their highest point until later in the month.
The McGowan government has faced calls to release the full Omicron modelling, having so far only published a brief summary document.
Health Minister Amber-Jade Sanderson on Tuesday said she was "pretty comfortable" with that level of transparency.
"I don't think that releasing large volumes of data is necessarily helpful to our planning and our approach," she told reporters.
"What the community want to see is that the government has put plans in place, that the government is responding and that's what we're doing.
"The Delta modelling, we had six months worth of data and there was time to have it peer-reviewed. There just simply hasn't been that time to have the Omicron modelling peer-reviewed.
"We're very comfortable with the modelling we've released. That modelling allows the community to see where we're expected to go, it allows businesses to plan accordingly."
Australian Medical Association WA president Mark Duncan-Smith this week accused the government of a lack of transparency.
"No one else knows where we are (in the outbreak), because only the government has their top-secret modelling, as opposed to the redacted modelling they released," he said.
