Some key things to do to reduce risk
✅ Avoid alcohol around the water
✅ Swim at patrolled beaches between the flags
✅ Be aware of strong currents & changeable conditions in rivers
✅ Supervise kids & teens around the water
✅ Learn CPR & know how to respond in an emergency

3/3 - Dr @amyepeden says more must be done to keep Aussies safe in the water, particularly in holiday periods.
“This includes extended patrols & safety measures on the days that drowning risk increases, but also consistent ongoing education & water safety awareness campaigns."

2/3 - The Australia Day and New Year’s Day public holidays accounted for almost 5% of drownings over the 12yrs to June 2022, the research published in @anzjph shows.
Drownings were more than 4x higher on public holidays and were also more common on weekends & school holidays.
ANZJPH retweeted
1/3 Safety experts are warning people to be careful near waterways and pools this long weekend, with new research showing Australia Day is one of the worst days of the year for drowning deaths and near misses.
