Hi @ScottMorrisonMP,
Yesterdays presser was live texted to me while I was on a 12+ hour shift in full PPE.
I found it confusing and factually incorrect.
You and the premier insist that Syd hospitals are fine but friends & colleagues on the frontline in Sydney aren’t coping.
@MJA_Editor I worked in ICU myself last night (diff hospital). The tension is palpable. Understaffed. Consultants effectively unable to admit new code blues into icu for care. Office and research staff (out of direct practice for years) being asked to come in to cover the gaps. We are afraid
Could your gut hold clues about the Microbiome’s impact on heath and ageing? • The Healthy Optimal Australian Microbiome #HOAMStudy team are calling eligible Sydney residents to join in this fascinating study. @MRC_microbiome@emadelomar Learn more here: https://t.co/ENWqcvreV1
I spent 3 months interning with the @Science_Academy Policy team earlier this year. It was a hugely rewarding experience, giving me a chance to meet some of the country's top scientists & a front row view of how science interacts with government & policy makers. Don't miss out!

Medical grade manuka honey is already approved for use by the FDA, TGA & EMA. Using it as an alternative to topical antimicrobials may help reduce the incidence of AMR. There are still lots of questions to be asked and answered & I'd love to hear them!

From this finding we wondered whether manuka honey would affect the efficacy of antimicrobials which reply on the PMF for entry to the cytoplasm. We found that manuka honey acts synergistically with tetracycline class antibiotics against P. aeruginosa!
