VICTORIA has reported 25 deaths from COVID-19, and 282 new cases of the virus.
It marks the state's deadliest day of the pandemic so far.
It is the second day in a row with new case numbers below 300.
On Sunday the state reported 279 new cases. On Saturday case numbers were at 303.

Neither Albury Wodonga Health nor Murrumbidgee Local Health District have recorded new cases of COVID-19.
On Friday, Daniel Andrews said that even if the numbers say the North East has no cases, the rise in "mystery cases" across Victoria means the government can no longer be sure.
One in five metropolitan cases, and 13 per cent in the regions, cannot be traced back to a confirmed source.
"I know some of your readers might say 'we've got stage three and we've got no case numbers' - no cases that we know of, that's the key issue. It's the mystery numbers that are of the greatest concern to us," Mr Andrews said.
