If you’re looking for a breakdown of coronavirus cases by neighbourhood in Melbourne, Victoria’s Department of Health and Human Services has released one. 

This interactive daily report is of confirmed cases of Covid-19 in Victoria. It’s updated daily and is compiled by the DHSS based on data that's made available to them.

Confirmed cases are those who have had a positive lab test result for Covid-19. Plus, it’s important to note that the charts and figures show the residential location of the confirmed case – namely, it isn’t necessarily where the person is residing right now, but where their residential address is. 

As of today, August 11, there are 7,869 confirmed active cases in Victoria. The most cases are found in the areas of Wyndham (941), Brimbank (877), Hume (585), Whittlesea (563), Melton (482) and Moreland (407).

UPDATE 07/07/2020: If you find the DHHS map a little difficult to use, university student Hassan Andrabi has created his own active map visualising information found about confirmed Victorian cases of Covid. Check it out here. Please note there may be discrepancies between the two maps due to a lag in updating data from the DHHS.
