Taiwan is a red alert for Australia. The 7-day average of daily new cases went from 10 (mostly returned travellers) on 12 May to 371 just 11 days later. If this happens in Australia it will be too late to get vaccinated to protect yourselves. DO IT NOW.

This ain’t a race or anything, but c’mon Victoria - let’s get vaccinated. It’s our path to safety. https://t.co/iVuvS3pJqz

And with only 4.5 nurses per 10,000 - more needs to be done to support our neighbors in #PNG fight #Covid_19 @BurnetInstitute

[Burnet Institute @BurnetInstitute]

PNG’s health care system can’t support rising #COVID19 cases with just 1 doctor per 20,000 people @majumdar_suman told @michaelusher @7NewsAustralia Watch https://t.co/hGZrgGl9mq @dfat @ACFID @MarisePayne @jonathan_pryke @unicefaustralia @ACFIDCEO

Hoping colleagues in PNG are safe and well. Shocking scale of PNG’s COVID-19 outbreak means it needs critical help, right now. @BurnetInstitute

@DanchinMargie @COSSI_Vaccine @MCRI_for_kids @UniMelbMDHS @NCIRS Fantastic news! Almost a year to the day since you spoke @BurnetInstitute #IWD event on the importance of immunization, what a year it's been

[Burnet Institute @BurnetInstitute]

Promising news! Vaccines 💉 along with lockdowns and better adherence to public health directives 😷 are behind sharp decreases in new #COVID19 cases and deaths globally, most pronounced in 🇪🇺 and 🇺🇸.

WHO Deputy Mike Ryan to his 80-year-old mum. “Whatever vaccine they show up with, you take it.”

Please do not refuse an approved vaccine because an even better one might come along later. Having one vaccine now does not preclude having another later.

Quality health information being blocked by #Facebook is deeply unethical and damaging, especially during a #pandemic! @BurnetInstitute

[Burnet Institute @BurnetInstitute]

We are a leading Australian medical research and public health organisation, not a news agency. The content we share on #Facebook is to help inform users about the latest research breakthroughs aimed at saving lives and solving complex global health issues, including #COVID19.
