Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander University Students need approximate cultural support at University. This is not about Academic ability it is about the social and institutional barriers and racism they experience every day.

Racism against Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Nurses has no place in Nursing Australia #backtothefire @Catsinam @ANMFSA @latrobebendigo

Sorry Day a time for reflection for all Australians. Remember the past, learn from the present and build strong bridges and communities for Indigenous equality in the future

.@WestRoianne a RAP (Reconciliation Action Plan) is meaningless if it's not addressing racism, injustice and demonstrates real outcomes for Australia's First Peoples @CATSINaM #reconciliationweek @acn_tweet @anmf_federal @NurMidBoardAust @JCUCHS

@ANMFSA Once again ANMF(SA) doing an amazing job for workers and the community.

[David Tarnda Copley @David_Tarnda]

@SAHealth Get a grip people 17 cases in a population of 7.5 million people.
Influenza cases were tens of thousands last year, hundreds of deaths and borders weren't close. We can beat this, without stuffing the economy. It needs to be a balance, not a panic!

[David Tarnda Copley @David_Tarnda]

Once again an outbreak has come from a medihotel where there is a high probability correct procedure by a single staff member was not being followed or the advice to stay home if not well.
Why are we not following the NT and use old detention centres etc for arrivals
Not the CBD

[David Tarnda Copley @David_Tarnda]

@SAHealth Learn to live with it folks. COVID is not going away.p
Less transmission than 2019 flu season and less deaths, but no one jumped up and down about it.
Instead you went to work an Emergency and coughed and sneezed all over colleagues and nursing staff
