Up to 1000 protesters took the streets of Melbourne's CBD yesterday after thousands gathered in the city to protest on Tuesday.
Victoria Police arrested 215 people during yesterday's arrest and made a further 92 arrests today, despite a far quieter and more relaxed day of demonstrations.
Today marked the fourth day of protests over a push to scrap mandatory COVID-19 vaccinations for the construction industry.
On Tuesday, Victoria Police Chief Commissioner Patton said the thousands of "selfish individuals" who protested had all placed themselves and others at risk of contracting COVID-19.
Premier Daniel Andrews also condemned protesters who breached the CHO stay-at-home directions.
"We have come too far to turn back now. Please spare a thought for our healthcare workers who are working such long hours looking after patients, many who are struggling to breathe," Mr Andrews said.
Victorian nurses have also issued stern words to the thousands who have protested in Melbourne's CBD, telling the protesters "to stop thinking only of themselves".
