Okay friends. It’s rare that I ask for anything but can you please RT this far and wide. It’s for the kids’ cancer charity I run. We very much need support for the physiotherapy sessions we provide across Australia. 🙏

Reinfection increases the risk of serious outcomes, including in kids. Given what we now know about COVID's long-term health impacts, schools need to minimise the risk of COVID spreading - for the sake of kids, teachers, their families and the wider community. @CrabbBrendan

I work in Melbourne's West. Where my patients (who are mostly poor, and often have complicated pregnancies) are denied contraception every week by the local Catholic public hospital. In 2023.
