Three people died of coronavirus-related causes in that time.
On Monday, 11 cases were recorded and two deaths, on Sunday 14 new cases were recorded and five deaths, while on Saturday 21 cases were recorded and seven deaths.
Meanwhile, pressure is mounting on Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews to speed up his COVID-19 roadmap after the state notched back-to-back days of low case numbers.
IN OTHER NEWS:
Victoria recorded just 11 new cases on Monday - its lowest daily figure since June 16 - to follow up Sunday's result of 14.
It dropped Melbourne's 14-day case average to 34.4, well below the target of 50 to lift some virus restrictions from September 28.
But the premier has yet to confirm whether Melbourne will move to its next step on Monday, which will allow a staged return to school for some students and more workplaces to reopen.
"We will have more to say about that process later in the week," Mr Andrews said.
