Looks like the government is planning to spend $800 Million for the budget which will be allocated to the Ministry of Health, on top of the annual budget.

In addition to a $5.6 Billion worth of package to help stabilise the economy.

This will be done in two different packages:

1) Stabilisation and Support package to help businesses and workers affected by this virus

2) Care and support package to provide households with more help to get through the cost of living.
