The global death toll from the coronavirus has risen to 3,252, with Australia recording its second fatality. NSW Health has confirmed that a 95-year-old woman who died on 4 March has tested positive for the virus. More than 95,000 people worldwide have now been diagnosed with the coronavirus, including 52 in Australia. Meanwhile, NSW Health Minister Brad Hazzard has criticised the "convoluted" process for securing emergency funding from the federal government, after NSW Health was forced to provide staff to an aged-care home whose employees failed to turn up for work following a coronavirus outbreak at the facility. The deceased woman was a resident of the aged-care home.
