Joint Media Release from PHAA & @ama_media:
Free Rapid Antigen Tests (RATs) for all is a matter of equity

The Australian Government must urgently increase supplies of Rapid Antigen Tests and ensure they are available to everyone for free, not just select groups, @_PHAA_ & @ama_media say
The RATs are a health product, not a typical consumer good, and the overwhelming demand for them has inflated their price beyond what many people can afford.

It's now time for Prof Tom Calma AO, whose roles include Chancellor of the University of Canberra and co-chair of @RecAustralia, who is delivering the Basil Hertzel Oration #AustPH2021 screenshot of Tom Calma speaking.
Prof Calma says the pandemic's ongoing lockdowns are causing challenging times. "This is hard", he says. It also shows much of Australia a reality the country has often avoided. Despite this, there are many lessons to be learned, and wins to be celebrated, he says. #AustPH2021
The Public Health sector is at risk of burn out. Lots of pressures over a long time. We still need to take time to reset, re-energise and refine, Prof Calma says. #AustPH2021
