The total number of new infections dropped for a fourth consecutive day on Monday, with 41,806 new infections and five deaths recorded across the nation.
Meanwhile, Australians stuck in virus isolation on election day as a confirmed case or close contact will still be able to cast their vote.
For the first federal election of the COVID-19 era, the Australian Electoral Commission is working on a nation-first telephone voting system for those subject to isolation orders on the day of the May 21 poll.
Voters who miss pre-polling and postal vote options will have to make a declaration they are subject to a health order to access the emergency measure.
Confirmed COVID-19 cases and most close contacts are currently required to spend seven days in isolation across the country.
