23.01.2022 Don’t worry girls and boys, Santa is good to go for Christmas! Santa and his reindeer have been given special permission to visit Queensland and deliver pre...ssies this year. Children are encouraged to put out treats, but make sure you wash your hands beforehand! #Christmas
23.01.2022 2 new cases this morning, bringing our total number of confirmed cases up to 1,145. Both new cases are from West Moreton and are close contacts of previous cas...es. They were both in quarantine, where they tested positive. Keep up the good work Queenslanders, remember to keep up social distancing and to stay home if youre unwell.
23.01.2022 Thank you for your support, Cooper. Today Im excited to introduce you to the incredible Jonty Bush, Labors new candidate at the state election.
22.01.2022 This pandemic has highlighted the importance of making essential products right here in Queensland. Thats why weve provided support to Aspen Medical Australia..., through our Industry Attraction Fund, to boost PPE manufacturing at their Brendale factory. Aspen are now producing two million face masks per month, with capacity boosted to four million by mid-October. The additional investment is expected to create 35 new full-time jobs in the first year of operation. Well continue to back local manufacturing as a key plank of Queenslands plan for economic recovery. #qldjobs
21.01.2022 Happy Friday Queensland. What local businesses are you going to support this weekend?
21.01.2022 Its welcome news that 25 per cent of all PPE bought by the Queensland Government will be made in Queensland, and were setting up a new PPE testing facility a...t Meadowbrook. Were making the things Queenslanders need and that means PPE for our frontline health and essential workers, including face masks, hand sanitiser and ventilators. Aspen Medical is a Brisbane-based manufacturing company that has been able to ramp up mask production to two million a month with support from the Palaszczuk Government. Theyll be able to increase that to four million masks a month by mid-October, further boosting Queenslands mask stocks. And theyll expand to produce gowns, booties, caps, and other PPE equipment.
19.01.2022 After more than 12 years in Parliament, today I have announced that I will not recontest the seat of Cooper at the next state election. My time as a Member of ...Parliament has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. Its been a tough decision. But with two beautiful young children and a family at home, I have plenty to look forward to in the future. To the people of Cooper thank you for putting your trust in me. I hope Ive done you proud. It has been a great privilege to have been part of the Palaszczuk Government and I will be working hard to see the Premier and Labor re-elected on October 31. I will also continue to do all I can to represent the people of Cooper right up to election.

16.01.2022 Clinical Nurse Nicole truly enjoys being able to complete the cycle of care in her role with our Blood Borne Virus and Sexual Health Service. This weeks #Healt...hHero joined the sexual health service in March this year after 6 years as a theatre nurse and is relishing the rapport building and trust formation she now gets with her patients. In the theatres I was a scrub nurse and worked in a team that organised all the equipment for surgeons. In sexual health I get lots of one-on-one patient contact; its so satisfying that I can complete the healthcare circle, performing sexual health assessments, providing treatment and then seeing patients again when the time comes for a test of cure. I feel quite privileged talking to my patients about sex and STIs. Its such a private and taboo topic but in the end, sexual health screening is so important, especially when something so easily tested and treated, like chlamydia, can have such detrimental effects on a persons health, such as infertility." Many of our community members benefit from Nicoles expertise before they even set foot in the clinic. Nicole and the team in Sexual Health are extremely active in community engagement and health promotion, and make regular appearances in schools and correctional facilities across the region, as well as being active on social media. In July 2020 Nicoles work on the rise of gonorrhoea was published in the Central Queensland and Central West Public Health Bulletin. Nicole truly is a #HealthHero, providing great care for Central Queenslanders. #HealthHero #GreatCare #SexualHealth

12.01.2022 Unless youve experienced breast cancer, its likely that youve never seen one of these before! These bright and patterned bundles are breast cushions! Breast... cushions are specially designed crescent-shaped cushions that are often used during recovery. People recovering from surgery find that these cushions help them sit, sleep, and rest more comfortably, they also prevent injury that can occur while walking or wearing a seatbelt. McGrath Breast Care Nurse, Sally Haley, recently received a delivery of handmade breast cushions from the lovely team at the Zonta Club of Gladstone.

12.01.2022 Tonight something amazing happened. Thanks to the tireless work of the QSEC committee, and a number of volunteer members, QSEC voted to move from an Incorporate...d Association to a Company Limited by Guarantee... As we work our way through the paperwork, our members will transition to a new, more mature organisation, with a strong vision for the future of social enterprise in Queensland. Thanks to those who witnessed this momentous occassion. We are coming of age.
11.01.2022 A really important message from the Chief Health Officer: Were now eight months in. Were learning a lot more. Were learning that this is not a disease of th...e respiratory system. That might be how its transmitted in the main, but its not flu. It affects every single cell in the body and leaves long-lasting problems for different organs in the body, whether that be the heart, the kidneys, the brain, the lungs. So, it is really important that we minimise the number of people who get this disease. Not just the number who are going to die from it, but the number who get it. That is really, really important. And thats why we have the very strict protocols that we have in Queensland for quarantine. This is about people not getting this disease. That is really important.
09.01.2022 Very happy to confirm this morning that weve done our 1 millionth COVID-19 test! Massive thanks to everyone whos come out and get tested, keep up the great work Queenslanders.
08.01.2022 Im proud to have worked with our Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk MP and our fantastic Chief Health Officer every day for 226 days to put your health first. That will always be the case. For as long as it takes.
08.01.2022 Kate Jones has always been a great friend to Central Queensland. She is someone Ive worked closely with ever since I was elected and someone Ive always been a...ble to rely on to advocate for our region in cabinet. Shes announced today that she wont be contesting the next election after a groundbreaking political career. Im personally very sorry to see her go but its been an absolute privilege working alongside her. All the best for the future Kate.

03.01.2022 Hi all just a quick note to let everyone know that I am now back in Gladstone. While I was recovering in Brisbane I was fortunate to get sworn in as Minister, a...nd on Tuesday sworn in as the Member for Gladstone. Starting the recovery now at home and taking it easy and doing everything that the Neurosurgeon and physio tell me (always a challenge). Huge thanks to everyone for your supportive posts and calls, it really meant a lot Big shout out to my amazing friends and family and especially to my awesome wife Theresa Butcher who was my rock. I will only be popping into the electorate office every now and then during this time but hoping to be cleared to return to full Ministerial Duties and Electorate responsibilities after Dr check up on 10th December. Remember look after your backs people, you only have one See more
02.01.2022 The question for Deb Frecklington is this - if she were Premier, who would she be listening to? This week we have seen a concerted campaign from the State and F...ederal LNP to open our borders while every other State and Territory continues to have border restrictions in place. She seems to be saying that she wouldnt be listening to the Chief Health Officer and that she would be making all these decisions about borders and exemptions herself. Does this mean she would open the borders even if the health advice was that is was unsafe to do so? You cant just listen to the expert health advice when it suits you. Queenslanders deserve an answer.
02.01.2022 Violence against women has no place in Qld and every one of us has a role to play in ending it within our community. 2020 presented even more challenges for wom...en when it came to DV with almost 70% of reported perpetrators using COVID-19 to stop their partner leaving home Today marks International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women and the beginning of the 16 Days of Activism to raise awareness of gender-based violence. The Palaszczuk Government has provided over $500M to tackle Domestic and Family Violence and we will continue our fight to #endDV The Official 16 Days of Activism Against Gender Violence Campaign
