It’s time to act on the Senate Community Affairs Legislation Committee’s recommendation to pass the federal government's world leading vaping reforms. We must be guided by expert health advice, not the cheque-book tactics deployed by Big Tobacco and the vaping lobby. #auspol

"We have not found any evidence to support the size of the claim that was made in the media ...
It is essentially an assertion not backed by any evidence we have seen"
In other words, a drastic case of bullshititis
Everybody associated with the story should be ashamed @abc730
Professor Brendan Murphy AC from @healthgovau yesterday appeared at Budget Estimates, telling the Committee "we have not found any evidence to support the size of the claim that was made in the media, the $8 billion dollar claim of fraud and billing errors…"

Let’s get to work and turn this trend around - especially for remote, rural and Indigenous communities

Just elected AMA Vice President. Time to up my Twitter game. Luckily I’ve got our new president @DrSteveRobson to teach me a thing or two here 😁

We are at the start of a 3rd COVID-19 Omicron wave and expect to see a significant rise in cases. Please continue to do the little things: stay home when unwell, test if you have symptoms & stay up to date with your vaccinations. More health.nsw.gov.au/news/Pages…

It’s been a rough week for many who lost a friend, colleague, doctor, mentor. Fun socks won’t fix it. But they remind us that doctors are human too and we need to support each other #CrazySocks4Docs #Drs4Drs #mentalhealth @AMA_NSW @drs4drs_Aus
Does this guy ever sleep? @wallyjammal No idea how you fit it all in, and I admire how you stay so passionate about primary care!
A strong primary health care system is essential. Here today to get action on improving ours @WentWest_Ltd @CHFofAustralia @AMA_NSW #primarycarereform
What a great session tonight with @msap_unsw exploring misinformation through the COVID-19 pandemic @DrAdiTorda @hollyseale @dctrjack @nswnma @AMA_NSW

Leadership is a complex topic - although we often know when we need it, and what we expect our leaders to do for us @ashnabasu @GabbGenevieve @grant_phelps @Eddie_Cliff @_daniellemcm @GweeAmanda @jproimos @HelenaTeede @Bunburykerryn @ZoeRaos
Congratulations to all the doctors named in today’s Australia Day Honours awards. But in particular to A/Prof Saxon Smith AM - my colleague and my friend. He’s led the medical profession and contributed so much to dermatology and medical leadership. Well deserved, Saxon

Good call on postponing the Tamworth Country Music Festival until April. Hosting such a large event during this phase of the pandemic would have put enormous pressure on a resource-constrained regional health system. @NSWHealth @TCMF_Official

Nurses having well earned leave cancelled at short notice to fill COVID ward rosters, whilst @Dom_Perrottet refuses to consider reinstating mask mandate. What is so terrible about wearing a mask? Our leaders need to listen to and enact sensible health advice. #vaccinesplus
