Here we go again. Too little too late. After rightfully criticising the Coalition Gov failure in vaccine procurement, the @albo gov continues to repeat their mistakes. @Mark_Butler_MP needs to reform the approval process including abolishing ATAGI as it is currently constituted

Where are those XBB vaccines? @AlboMP @Mark_Butler_MP



Just wait…. He’ll announce an inquiry 😳😞😂

.@amapresident @DrSteveRobson leading the way: “You can do it immediately,” Robson @SatPaper “You don’t need to install infrastructure .. You can put a bloody mask on.” “It’s not an imposition on your liberty. It is a way of protecting people … Expensive & highly politicised.

Finally a news article that interviews people who tell it like it is and understand the real problems. Thank you @KarenMMiddleton 🙏 and the Saturday Paper. thesaturdaypaper.com.au/news/health/20…

Doctors should “recommit to maintaining generalist skills” as they specialise so they can “respond to the inexorable rise of multimorbidity,” England’s chief medical officer, Chris Whitty, has said bmj.com/content/383/bm…

I wonder if I completely imagined this, but I feel so sure that pre-2020 it was still considered impolite to expose people to infectious diseases. Surely that wasn’t taboo only from March 2020 to January 2021, right???

Housing affordability - including renting - is at crisis levels. The major parties have put it in the too hard basket. Next year I’ll be holding a Citizens’ Assembly in Mackellar to find some real solutions. Enough talk. Time for action. theguardian.com/australia-news…

I don't know how close I came (but it's pretty close); To going on national TV and explaining how a Judge turned a blind eye to an NHS Director destroying 90,000 emails during a court hearing and another Director deleting their NHS email account just to protect powerful people

When I got an email like this from an ITV producer and then spent the day filming, I began to think that my 10 year NHS whistleblowing struggle was going to see the light of day on ITV. linkedin.com/posts/dr-chris…

Yes. More needs to be done. Let's start with our own backyard and set an @RACGP expectation that all of general practice offers MATOD treatment for patients seeking help. This IS chronic disease management. It's left to too few, w many retiring very soon, our communities suffer

It's very concerning that Victoria has recorded its highest number of overdose deaths in a decade, according to a new report released today. Alcohol and other drug use is a health issue and more must be done to save lives at risk. #AOD
