24 Covid deaths in Oz

Melbourne/London, August 26

Australia on Wednesday recorded 156 fresh Covid cases and 24 new deaths, the highest single-day increase in the death toll, health officials said.

The country's second most populous state of Victoria recorded 149 new coronavirus cases and all the latest fatalities, 21 of those linked to aged care outbreaks, taking the state's death toll to 462, and the national death toll to 549.

In England, pupils must wear face masks in places with local lockdowns, Education Minister Gavin Williamson has said. Earlier, ministers had ruled out the need for pupils to wear masks in corridors despite WHO's advice at the weekend. — Agencies
