New case identified in Melbourne, linked to NSW
A man in his 60s has tested positive to COVID-19 (since the last numbers were reported).
He flew to Melbourne from Sydney.
Flew to Melbourne on Sunday. Was at daughter's in Sydney on Saturday night.
So one might guess that will mean unlinked and as yet unknown cases at large in Sydney too (The daughter and/or others in her household and their contacts). Morseo as the daughter lives in a green zone.

Victoria's health Minister Martin Foley said the man in his 60s was in Sydney visiting his daughter.
His daughter lived in a region of Sydney which was classfied as a 'green zone'.
