The stories behind the numbers in intensive care - ABC listen

Among all the COVID numbers - the new infections, the cases under investigation, the deaths - are some other numbers: the number of people in intensive care and those on ventilators.

I missed the news that Dr Clare Looker has stepped down as @VictorianCHO. As well as Prof Ben Cowie. Both have been excellent public health advocates 🙏 👏I welcome the wonderful @tarunw filling in as CHO while recruitment for the new CHO is underway. health.vic.gov.au/chief-heal…

Dear @vicemergency Twitter team, Please make & post your very important messages to a @bluesky account. Many feel just as I do that using this platform has become unconscionable, and have moved to BlueSky. Please ensure the thousands there also get your vital messaging 🙏

Dear twitter followers, I have found another home at bluesky. I can’t stay much longer feeding the Musk/Trump/Billionare Bro machine. I despise them & all they are doing. If that’s you too you can join me there @janecaro.bsky.social. It’s like the old twitter used to be.

I’m very sad to report that @gemcarey has died. The family has asked me to release this statement. “Gemma passed away on 17th November 2024 after a long battle with illness. Her family ask for privacy during this difficult time.”
