Feeling unwell?

If you have COVID symptoms, TEST
If you test positive, ISOLATE
If you can’t test, MASK

Protect yourself and others (especially high-risk people) - it still matters!

I love your optimism but if my specialist cancer hospital can't even do this, I doubt that a region/province/state can.

To be fair, most staff are happy 🙃

I don't think this exists. Even within hospitals there could be varying levels of masks requirements, like in my workplace it was surgical in oncology and N95 in haematology. Or at RMH it's likely nothing anymore except for N95s in bone marrow transplant ward and maybe ICU.

Hope you've got the carbs ready 😆

And just this week my specialist cancer hospital has rolled back N95 masks in the most vulnerable patient settings (blood cancers, autologous stem cell transplant and CAR-T cell patients). Make it make sense.

Yes!!!!!! Where are the unions but also where are the parent teacher committees as well. Where is the leadership?

One week back at school and my eldest has Flu A. This is after my youngest had it in August and then had RSV one month later in Sept. We have managed to avoid spread within our family but can do nothing about school. @vicgovau.bsky.social @VicGovDE this is not sustainable. Clean the air.
