Australia's Prime Minister Scott Morrison says a travel ban will be introduced for people coming into Australia from Italy.

It came after the death toll in Italy jumped by nearly 100 people last night, as the country grapples with the coronavirus outbreak.

The ban will come into effect from 6pm today.

Morrisson says this, of course, will mean that any Australians, residents or others, who are obviously exempt from those travel bans, would be subject to the same isolation period that applies to the other countries for which there are travel bans.
