@UaTuama @PCOCPallCare We are really thrilled. Our grant for PACOP is about the same as for PCOC & we are currently recruiting about 14 extra staff. Being able to do this at scale will really make a difference. We will share all of our material with Ireland as we develop it @moreilly8 @CreedonBrian

“Running out of health care workers rather than running out of ventilators”. It will be years, maybe a decade, before we really understand the full implications of COVID-19. Every country. We are in the fight of our lives @AHSRI_UOW @UOW_VC @CroakeyNews @sallyjsara @LindaMottram

Every cancer patient I’ve met dislikes the “battle” analogies. It implies that whose who die from cancer didn’t “fight” hard enough. Sometimes the treatments work, sometimes they don’t. We the patients are lucky or unlucky. That’s all.
