The COVID-19 media conference.
Speaker:
Director-General of Health, Dr Ashley Bloomfield
The epicentre of new cases and death tolls during this coronavirus pandemic has shifted over several months from China, to Europe and then to the USA.
There’s always been concern about what could happen when the virus gets to less developed countries and the numbers are shooting up in places now like Latin America.
Australia’s death toll stands at 100 and the number of cases here is relatively low with the big issue for the moment just how soon the internal borders here will open.
In this update:
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau unveiled the Canada Emergency Commercial Rent Assistance program, designed to reduce rent by 75 per cent for small businesses affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. Federal and provincial governments will cover 50 per cent, while landlords absorb 25 per cent.
