@drkerrynphelps @qldhealth It’s ridiculous. Why all the fuss over masks. It’s really not that much of an imposition.

[Psychmatters_aus @PsychmattersA]

@AnnastaciaMP I really wish you wouldn’t. Those of us with immune issues have had some semblance of protection while masks have been mandated. It doesn’t cost much to look after those who are more vulnerable

@TracyWesterman Fantastic!!!

Now that we’ve established that 16 year kids shouldn’t drive forklifts, can we agree that 10 year old kids shouldn’t be in prison?

Helpful advice for the current uncontrolled #covid19 outbreak. Preventing transmission is our only way out of this.

[Psychmatters_aus @PsychmattersA]

@realhuntermmm Telehealth is not appropriate for everyone either. I am very concerned about vulnerable Australians being denied mental health care if we take a black and white view on who we see face to face.

[Psychmatters_aus @PsychmattersA]

@realhuntermmm Qld has no community transmission and borders have been locked tight. For the majority of the pandemic it has been business as usual here. Once borders open though that will change and we all need to step up.

We are working hard to ensure that NDIS participants and providers are not disadvantaged by the proposed Independent Assessors Model. You can read one of our media articles here https://t.co/SYtRjZL2EJ

As uncomfortable as it is, this has some truth. Being a psychologist does not afford us a protective layer against the effect of a pandemic. Please reach out if you need support.

@realhuntermmm @AustPsych There are so many other innovative solutions that could have been considered.

@RikRankin @NTSonline This song is a lovely reframe of the experience we are all going through. Thanks for communicating some of the positive experiences coming out of this time. Meaning making is so important.

@PatMcGorry @abcnews So Pat, you expect me to work for less than minimum wage? Covid may be here but my business costs remain. More helpful for someone with your power and influence to lobby for increased rebates. Fair go mate.

@freeradicalone Such ignorance about addiction and it’s precursors.
