18.01.2022 Dr Indika Alahakoon highly recommends the FLU VACCINE for all pregnant women. Please contact your local GP or Chemist to get your vaccine A flu shot decreases your risk of getting the flu during your pregnancy. Prevent potential fetal health problems due to the flu. Having a fever caused by the flu early in pregnancy might increase the risk of fetal birth defects. Protect your baby after birth. The vaccine can be done at any time in your pregnancy.

07.01.2022 Yesterday Dr Alahakoon and Centre for Women’s Ultrasound staff had the opportunity to give back to our community by cooking for the families at Ronald McDonald house in Westmead. Westmead House provides a safe place to stay for around 1,360 families per year. It was a fantastic experience cooking for 60 families tonight. All the CFWU staff loved meeting some of the inspiring and strong families at RMH and wish all the children happy, healthy futures.

03.01.2022 Coronavirus: People arriving in New South Wales from Cambodia, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Iran, Italy, Japan, Singapore, South Korea and Thailand are being asked by ...the state’s health department to monitor their respiratory symptoms or fever. If symptoms develop, immediately isolate yourself and call your doctor or health direct 1800 022 222 for an assessment - Dr Kerry Chant - NSW Chief Medical Officer. NSW Health Statement: In line with national advice, NSW Health today urged people returning from Cambodia, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Iran, Italy, Japan, Singapore, South Korea and Thailand to be vigilant in monitoring themselves for respiratory symptoms or fever. In addition to the outbreak in mainland China, there are increasing reports of transmission of COVID-19 (novel coronavirus) or the potential for outbreaks in these countries. NSW Health has daily telephone conferences with the Commonwealth and other states and territories to ensure a national process to assess the risk associated with travel and for developing consistent advice. The Commonwealth Department of Health website is regularly updated with the latest health and travel advice. Travellers should check SmartTraveller web site. NSW Chief Health Officer, Dr Kerry Chant said symptoms may be very mild, and include fever, cough, sore throat, or shortness of breath. If symptoms develop, immediately isolate yourself and call your doctor or health direct 1800 022 222 for an assessment, Dr Chant said. If you have been in contact with a confirmed case of COVID-19, or returned from mainland China you must self-isolate for 14 days since last contact or departure from mainland China. Please avoid gatherings if you have been in contact with suspect cases in countries where there have been outbreaks, Dr Chant said. NSW Health provides up-to-date information on COVID-19 on its website and will continue to advise the community of developments. I want to stress there is still no evidence of community transmission of COVID-19 in Australia, Dr Chant said. This advice is to protect the community and the health of individuals who have visited higher risk international destinations. Practising good hand and sneeze/cough hygiene is the best defence against most viruses. www.7NEWS.com.au #coronavirus #7NEWS
