Australia's death toll from coronavirus has risen to three, as authorities struggle to trace new cases emerging across the country. In the latest measure to stem the spread, health bosses said online consultations for patients suspected of having the virus could start as early as this week. Federal Health Minister, Greg Hunt, said the latest victim, an 82-year-old man, picked up the virus from the infected aged care worker in her 50s at BaptistCare's Dorothy Henderson Lodge in Macquarie Park. He died overnight in hospital, chief health officer Dr Kerry Chant said earlier today.
