Australia's coronavirus death toll sits at 19, with more than 4500 recorded cases.
Spain has recorded its highest loss of life over 24 hours amid the COVID-19 crisis as US deaths surge past China’s.
Two Australian Border Force officers test positive to the virus, one from NSW.
Exporting face masks or hand sanitiser will be punished with up to five years in jail, as will price-gouging of these and other “essential goods”.
The moves come as a Chinese-backed company that recently sent 10,000 masks, 30,000 protective gowns and 68,000 disposable gloves from Sydney to Shanghai claims it is now amassing supplies that it will donate to Australian doctors and nurses.
To ensure there is no repeat of the Chinese takeaway, Home Affairs Minister Peter Dutton has moved to ban exports of gloves, gowns, goggles, visors or alcohol wipes, as well as masks or hand sanitiser.
Customs can now seize the goods which will be added to the national medical stockpile if they are not defective.
In a second regulation change, Health Minister Greg Hunt has attacked price gouging of the same critical items — defined as trying to charge more than 20 per cent over what was originally paid for the goods.

Why do I have the suspicion that China let this disease ravage their country, incinerated anybody needing a hospital, and now with the disease behind them and everybody healthy they are poised to take over the world economy?

Re: Chinese on NOTICE
We have local distilleries making hand sanitizer for emergency personel and sometimes the general public. They ask that you bring them empty bottles to fill. Any of you backyard chemists should get the recipe.Black Orchid wrote: ↑Wed Apr 01, 2020 8:03 amThe horse has already bolted on that. They have already cleaned us out.

Re: Chinese on NOTICE
We haven't had any hand sanitizer for a long time where I shop. It's easy enough to make but you can't even buy the Isopropyl or Aloe Vera gel. It's all cleaned out.Texan wrote: ↑Wed Apr 01, 2020 1:12 pmWe have local distilleries making hand sanitizer for emergency personel and sometimes the general public.

Most of the distilleries are in more rural areas and not near me but that's a good idea. I should drag the still out of the garage and make some myself to hand around. The biggest problem is that I have no empty bottles and I've half forgotten how to use it.
