Premier @DanielAndrewsMP dismisses @MatthewGuyMP stance on 3rd dose mandate: “Mandates are here”

“We only got to that level by mandating”

“And there will be more”

“as for fourth and fifth let’s see how this goes,”

Here's @DanielAndrewsMP on the mandate debate .. and his response to @CoalitionVic @MatthewGuyMP policy -- with the Premier accusing others of "anti-vax language,"

For the past few months I’ve been working with a COVID Community team. We try to help people manage COVID safely at home.

Inspired by my patients and the fabulous hard working team, I’ve put together some short informative vids.

More on the way

bit.ly/3HNsiau
This vid was originally recorded to help our #COVID19Vic patients navigate the “COVID system” and explain why they received so many phone calls.

Now I hear people are not getting called at all 😞. Sharing v2

Image
When people with #COVID19 first come in contact with us, we try to do an ‘initial assessment’.

It’s not just about the symptoms. It’s about offering extra support/treatment & protecting others in the household

#MedTwitter Hi again from your neighborhood cardiologist - This article from the UK is getting quite a lot of interest because it has worked harder in determining the incidence of COVID vaccine myocarditis after boosters. Let's think through this one. medrxiv.org/content/10.110…
#Vaccineswork #COVID19 #COVID19France #COVID19Vic #tweetiatrician The structure of their study is essentially that they looked at 42 million Brits >13 years of age and checked, based upon national medical records, whether or not they had COVID disease myocarditis, Vax myo, and...
Which dose and which vaccine it happened after (COVID disease, Moderna, Ox-Astra Zeneca, or Pfizer). They found some data that correlate with the prior Nature study at nature.com/articles/s4159… .

Exit from lockdown in #COVID19Vic was a relief for everyone & more than earned. But in our joy, I don’t think we thought much about those who died on that very day. 1/
It is important we celebrate, in part bc our collective action saved thousands. But also imp we remember the 82 who died of COVID in this last week. We should honour those people same way we do others who die tragically before their time. 2/
It’s important bc our behaviors - as authorities & individuals - still matter in these coming months. Think hard about how those people became infected, & to how we can further minimize that happening. Unvaccinated people esp, but also the vaccinated, can transmit delta. 3/

"Airway management in the era of severe pneumonia" with #CHESTairways experts from the Airway Domain Task Force.

Will live tweet this talk on this #CHEST2021 thread.

Speakers:
@Chaeface @KDoerschug @J_Mendelson_MD and yours truly! Image
Let's get started with WHY our session is important:
🔥 Appx. 10% emergent intubations may result in failed airway
🔥 It's not just anatomical challenges, but physiological ones that have to be considered, esp with severe pneumonia
🔥 Lessons from the pandemic

#CHEST2021
* Let's talk about the vicious cycle of injury that occurs in acute resp failure (pic 1)
* Clinical course of disease imp for decision to intubate (pic 2)
* Ideal timing related to worsening work of breathing (pic 3)

As NSW prepares for it’s grand re-opening tomorrow & VIC abt 2 wks behind, I wait cautiously with bated breadth. As I write this thread, the backup area for COVID pts in one of the places I work at has hit capacity. The docs are apprehensive at what the night will bring 🧵1/n
& tomorrow, we will execute the next stage in our surge plan. I want to talk to u abt #Moral_injury. As a HCW in this pandemic, I have been thru the highs & lows of everything my state has borne witness to thru the lens of my work. 2/n #Covid19Vic

I have worried, angry, hopeful & now concerned. Everyone deserves to come out of lockdown & continue with their lives in the new COVID normal. We have sacrificed so much, Victorians more than any other for the gains we hope to reap in a few weeks. 3/n abc.net.au/news/2021-10-0…

Just had a lovely long chat with my bestie in California. She works ICU in Central CA, & I thought I'd share her most recent war stories in a Thread: #COVID19Aus #COVID19Vic #Covid19NSW
1: She works in a 22 bed ICU - but that has been expanded to cope with more COVID patients /2
2: Last year, most of their COVID patients were migrant workers, most with significant co-morbidities. But this year, it's across the population demographics, & co-morbidities aren't as big a factor;
3: Patients are only admitted to ICU for ventilation; #Covid19AU #COVID19Vic /3
They have a 40 bed HDU for people who aren't intubated, but need other intensive forms of respiratory support.
4: Most of the ICU patients spend 6-8 weeks ventilated via tracheostomy;
5: And then they DIE. Yes, they die: Since March 2020, this ICU .. #COVID19Aus #Covid19NSW

Re: Testing positivity rates in NSW / VIC / ACT

Testing in NSW is falling - but so is the positivity rate

3 weeks ago, NSW was testing ~130,000 ppl/day. Positivity reached 1.1%

Today, NSW testing just under 120,000 / day.* Positivity: 0.83%

#covid19aus #covid19nsw #COVID19Vic Image
*I calculate the positivity rate by:
% = 7-day avg tests / 7-day avg cases

I think this smoothed rate is slightly more reliable than a daily rate

It shows the trend and eliminates factors like daily volatility, weekend effect, possibly mismatched numerators/denominators
The downside of this smoothed rate is it can be slow to show what's happening

But IMO, that's more of a concern when the positivity rate is rising, rather than falling

Here, the grey line shows the positivity rate in ACT (now 0.7%) Image

1/ Regardless of your view of the recent protests, VicPol have clearly been employing new and far more violent tactics in recent days. It's extremely alarming.

Here's a super thread for #auspol of #VicPolViolence, starting with the well circulated Flinders St Station "arrest":
2/ A two in one here. A 74 year old lady is pushed to the ground and pepper sprayed by two cops. Simultaneously, a Nine News photographer is also sprayed. Notice the cops aren't the full riot gear ones. It's because many of them are refusing to show up to work.
3/ The high rate of leave (cops have unlimited mental health leave in Vic) leads to fewer, poorly equipped and less well-trained cops to handle protests, making kettling break outs like this one more likely and more violent. Poor tactics from VicPol in a kettle led to this:
