@normanswan A thoughtful, balanced response from @WomensAgenda to @4corners problematic piece on ADHD diagnosis: https://t.co/sLycbxTRi7

Expected better from your team tbh, Norman. (Usually a fan!) But the 4 Corners piece had so many limitations/blindspots. Perhaps a follow-up piece is due?

We showed up to the Covid Inquiry masked, carrying our own air filters.

Last week, the healthcare report confirmed everything we said.

@Novavax ALL Australians were meant to have the tools to stay safe.
MOST is not ALL.
Do something.

@Novavax WHY don't we have ANY version of updated Nuvaxovid in Australia?
Please advise the Exact Reason JN1 not being evaluated by the TGA.

It is dangerous & inequitable that mRNA vax medically intolerant Australians can't stay up to date. #LeftBehind

What Will It Take?

[Teresab @TeresabDB62]

@Novavax Can we please have Novavax here in Australia.

[Peter Vogel @psvbluemts]

Why no C19 vax for children in Australia? Last year, ACIP reported 58 deaths in infants ages less than a year, 44 deaths in children ages 1-4 years and 81 deaths in children ages 5-19 years. 50% of children hospitalised with COVID had no underlying health conditions.

@Novavax When will the Novavax covid vaccine be available again in Australia? It's been a very long time since any adult could get one here, let alone children. @TGAgovau

The CSA just released their draft for comment on respiratory protections for healthcare settings in Canada and it’s a huge game changer.

https://t.co/vWQwYGasSI

Some of the highlights:

-surgical masks should not be used for respiratory protections or for source control with patients

-elastomeric respirators are to be put into widespread use & there are several situations where they are the preferred option vs N95

-every worker in healthcare settings will be protected with a respirator, no longer just HCWs. They say about 3 million workers should be covered under these new policies

-patients are to be given respirators and only given surgical masks if unable to wear a respirator as a way to better protect HCWs from infected patients

-respirators are to be worn in all areas and at all times unless unless an area is designated special area where respiratory protections aren’t needed

-workers exposed to blood can use any type of elastomeric respirator but have to ensure they use surgical N95s if using an N95

 Not only will these new policies help HCWs & patients, they will help workers and residents in ltc as well

[Nicolas Smit @PPEtoheros]

@drseanmullen It’s free to sign up & access the entire draft. The more people that comment on the draft, the better the final version will be. You might need a VPN if you’re outside of Canada though. Here are some of the screenshots.

Australian classrooms have worse air quality protections than many pet shelters and greenhouses. First step: CO2 monitoring in every classroom - cost effective and informative. ⁦@NSWHealth⁩ ⁦@NSWEducation⁩ https://t.co/ika9YaR6av

There is a time to step up & the time is now. With the FDA approval, and the efficacy of Novavax, TGA approval is a must, for Australian residents.

[Dr David Berger BSc MBBS MRCP(UK) FRACGP-RG DTM+H @YouAreLobbyLud]

This is a very important thread. There is no justification for not having (and enforcing) a universal mask mandate in healthcare facilities in Australia.

I am currently in Japan. Compliance with mask mandates in healthcare is 100%. Why would we not do the same in Australia? It would be such an easy win.

@PatMcGorry "However definition of the clinical phenotype of ADHD & diagnostic process needs work"

Do you mean the DSM-5 would benefit from updating to better reflect the lived experience of some people (e.g. women) with ADHD?

Totally agree, diagnostic process could be better in Australia.

[Anita White. 😷 @RealAnitaWhite]

No.

No reason to be hopeful while Australia ignores Cövid spread in schools.

Parents are being lied to.

They should not be consenting to repeated infection at school of their children, with an immune dysregulating, neuroinflammatory virus.🧵

@Engineer_Wong Adam, is it ok to turn the 4Lite 90 degrees for use? ie. Using it in 'landscape' mode, rather than 'portrait' (as pictured above)?

eg. When holding on abdomen/chest at the dentist, it would be easier to hold in landscape orientation - if that works?

Thanks!

Study links poor indoor air quality to COVID clusters.

"Taiwanese medical researchers have linked air quality in kindergarten classrooms to increased risk of COVID-19 cluster infections, a research paper published in the journal Indoor Air showed."

Australian Government and Novavax negotiations over $.👇

@Novavax please get your TGA application in asap.

@healthgovau we urgently need this vaccine for a more inclusive vaccine program. Inclusion is a core tenet of public health.
