Policy nerd and country girl. Passionate about health outcomes, future planning and making a difference for rural communities. Views are my own.

[Dr Marian Dover @DoverMarian]

This week I:

- was the sole ED doctor
- delivered a baby
- inserted IUDs
- gave analgesic joint injections
- kept people out of hospital
- admitted people to hospital

Name me another career where I can do all the above. I’ll wait.

And while Omicron’s intrinsic mildness is good news for us all, invaluable data from France (via @nicolasberrod) shows that vaccines still do more to reduce Covid’s lethality than Omicron does.

[Chief Health Officer, Victoria @VictorianCHO]

Omicron is not mild. We would not be better off by getting deliberately infected. Get boosted. Get vaxxed. Get tested. Mask up.

[Maryanne Hawthorn @MezHawthorn]

@ShannonNott @ShannonNott absolutely. Globally, vaccine equity is fundamental to transitioning out of the pandemic. But closer to home, the risks of large case numbers in short periods of time shouldn’t be underestimated.

@jfredlevesque @NSWHealth @nswaci @eHealthNSW @cancerNSW @bhiNSW @NSWCEC Congratulations! Well deserved.

@AntheaTemple Where are you off to Anthea? You will be very missed at ACI (and by the LHDs!)

COVID-19 is very dangerous. WNSWLHD resident Jayson O-Brien was extremely sick but fought his way back and is headed home.
#TeamDubbo decided a special send off was needed for their special patient.

They say a smile is worth a thousand words. Mrs Cawthornes smile says it all.

How do you speak up for safety?
Today is world patient safety day with a focus on speaking up for safety. We have trained over 4800 staff in speaking up for safety and we are rolling out REACH – a process which helps patients and families share patient safety concerns with us.
