Subscriber only Flights from India to Australia will be temporarily halted amid increasing concerns around the South Asian nation s escalating coronavirus catastrophe. Prime Minister Scott Morrison, following a meeting of the national security wing of cabinet, also announced Australia would send an emergency support package of medical supplies to India. The catastrophe unfolding in India, a nation of nearly 1.4 billion people, has led to severe shortages of oxygen, thousands of deaths a day, mass cremations, and an outpouring of international assistance. In the 24 hours to Tuesday, India recorded 323,000 new infections and 2771 deaths. The federal government s initial support package to India will include 1 million surgical masks, 500, non-invasive ventilators, 100,000 goggles, 100,000 pair of gloves and 20,000 face shields.
