Australia is making "good progress" to contain the spread of the deadly coronavirus and the country was on the road back to a "COVID-safe economy", Prime Minister Scott Morrison said on Thursday.
Prime Minister Morrison, while delivering an update on the pandemic, also said that the government is now looking to roll back baseline restrictions in three to four weeks time.
The total number of confirmed COVID-19 cases crossed the 6,600-mark and the virus has claimed 76 lives in Australia.
Morrison said that there had been "good progress" to control the virus.
We are one week down and we are making good progress," he said in Canberra.
"That also involves making good progress on things like testing kits, personal protective equipment, respirator supplies, the status of those and the supply lines are in place and they are strong and that is enabling us, I think, to make a lot of progress."
Morrison said "we will be moving on the baseline restrictions after considering this further information from the health advisers and states also are already moving where they have gone beyond the baseline restrictions in scaling that back already and we expect to see more of that in the weeks ahead."
