@pnolan99@MelbourneEPdoc@miriamnrmn@CSANZ_AHSTC @PiCardiacSA Looks amazing Gareth, count me as a backup presenter if anyone can’t make it (or I’ll just sneak in to hear all these great speakers!).
Any questions on Geelong, the Surf Coast, and Mitchel shire going into lock down? Or just more questions on the intricacies of the #roadmap#COVID19Vic#melbcentricjournalists
This is how Healthcare workers feel as we listen to today's media conferences. We can never really know what's before as we leave the trenches. Wish us luck, & protect us by getting vaccinated. #COVID19Vic#COVID19nsw#Covid19Aus
Why NSW needs Stage 4 + masks restrictions. As predicted case numbers aren’t coming down (still orange line). NSW has called for contact tracing help from other states, as the system struggles to keep pace with the growing outbreak. https://t.co/a9YLlNjR07. #COVID19nsw
Major crises bring out the best & worst in people. #Covid19Vic qualifies. Seeing courage, commitment & care in my HCW colleagues - the best. Seeing a few grubby types laying the boot into Brett Sutton - almost as obscene as seeing patients suffer without family.
There's so much noise in public debate about #COVID19Vic, it's hard (& distressing) for many to know what is essential, & what's not. If what I say seems obvious, accept my apologies. The top priority remains avoiding the real risk of a 3rd wave with many deaths #springst#auspol
The 3 cases in Shepparton reported to have 411 close contacts - potential for this cluster to get big. The difference between a community that is locked down and one that is open.

When I find restrictions weighing heavily, I remind myself: Worldwide #Covid19 cases - 21% in US; < 0.1% in Aust – 22 times more cases per million population in US than here; 1 million deaths - 20% in US; <0.1% in Aust – 19 times more deaths per million in US than here. #auspol
