I wrote about the mindfuck of having anxiety and depression while pregnant and how important (and hard) it is to find the right treatment https://t.co/ApWqvAnyd0

@JennaGuillaume TY so much for this article! Such an important conversation - I’m going to be sharing this one far and wide! I spoke to a ‘Rodney’ through PANDA whose advice I’ll never forget. I know now it’s Rodney Whyte! I’d really appreciate if you’d pass on my thanks.

@albericie @RobBendigo @smh So glad to learn this!

@erinplaw Thanks for sharing!

This is brilliant easy to follow modelling which shows what happens to the COVID-19 pandemic when you change one variable at a time. Behavioural change makes it controllable. No time to waste @billbowtell @MelissaSweetDr @PatsKarvelas @jonathanvswan https://t.co/ZW6KAHaZ04

The irony is:

The more successful these public health measures are

The more people will say it was all blown out of proportion.

To my colleagues in public health: I see you & greatly appreciate your service.

Our new campaign launches today. #YouQuitYouWin casts a light on all the things smokers hate about smoking, such as the cost, the isolation, the breathlessness and the constant feeling of being judged https://t.co/IaPtQqCr52

@HealthyBendigo @latrobe Congrats Steph!

@bgowritersfest While the @bgowritersfest might be over, the opportunity to support a regular Sam The Story Tram has just started! The Bendigo Family Hub initiative in Pick My Project proposes that and much more 🚃📚😍 https://t.co/Sf4SJimWSJ #First1000Days

@kevdevries touche @kevdevries. In this case the article is about chronic disease, but I get your point! Just saying "prevention" can mean many things.
