The novel coronavirus has infected more than 92,000 people worldwide, killing at least 3,200. If you're just waking up now, here are the key developments in the battle to contain its spread.

Here's the latest:

Asia cases spike: The number of confirmed coronavirus cases continues to grow in Asia, with South Korea reporting another spike today that leaves it with over 5,600 infections. Mainland China recorded 119 new cases as of the end of Tuesday, with 115 in Hubei province, ground zero for the outbreak. Japan, Australia, Hong Kong, Malaysia and Singapore all reported new cases today.

US cases rise: There are now 126 confirmed coronavirus cases in the United States. Nine patients have died -- all in Washington state.

Medical equipment shortage: The WHO is warning of a global medical equipment shortage and estimates that about 89 million medical masks, 76 million examination gloves and 1.6 million goggles will be required globally for health care workers to respond to the outbreak.

Planes grounded: Japan Airlines and All Nippon Airways announced they will reduce the number of domestic flights in Japan. Vietnam budget carrier Vietjet has suspended all flights between Vietnam and South Korea.

Iran rolls out new measures: Iran, which is one of the worst affected countries in the world, is activating a 300,000-strong team of health workers. People trying to leave the city of Qom will be quarantined if they have symptoms.

All clear for Chinese military: China has one of the biggest militaries in the world -- but none of its personnel have been infected with coronavirus, according to a senior member of the People's Liberation Army.

Bare shelves: Australia has only had 42 confirmed coronavirus cases, but that hasn't stopped worried shoppers buying up supplies, leaving supermarket shelves empty.

Avoiding crowds: Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced today that he will be skipping a key event to mark the major Hindu festival of Holi. Meanwhile, South Korean President Moon Jae-in has canceled his visits to the United Arab Emirates, Egypt and Turkey.

Hong Kong evacuees on way home: Two chartered flights will evacuate Hong Kong residents from Hubei province today.
