24.01.2022 Update: Sunday, 15th March 2020 Hi everyone. Thank you very much for sharing this post so widely . I cannot stress how important it is to get a positive messa...ge out to the Australian community that there is something that each of us can do, right now, to make a massive impact on the course of Covid-19 epidemic here. We have updated the graph today, Sunday the 15th of March 2020, with the amazing help of Tim Fazio (dead set legend ). This data is from the World Health Organisation, and we don't have the total number of infections in Australia for today. As you can see, Australia (in YELLOW) is still in the very early phase of the outbreak, we had a good starting point, but the upturn in the graph similar to the red countries is a bad sign. There is still time to make an impact, but that time is right now. There is disturbing news coming out of Europe and America. Look at the RED countries and LISTEN to the stories coming out of them. Hospitals are completely overrun in Northern Italy like there were in Wuhan, many patients cannot even be treated now, multiple doctors and nurses sick and intubated, so many deaths. Spain is soon to follow, as are cities in America. I am deeply sad for what we are about to see unfold. LOOK at the BLUE countries in Asia: Hong Kong, Singapore, Japan. They are so far ahead of us in this epidemic in time, but they have managed to "flatten the curve" massively. They have NOT had a hospital disaster, they have the capacity to treat their sick, and their communities will be OK. Countless lives have been saved. The difference between the RED and BLUE countries? Singapore, Hong Kong and Japan adopted personal and government-enforced social isolation and interpersonal distancing at the EARLIEST stages of the pandemic. They did not wait for a massive increase in cases, they LEARNED from their experience of SARS. As soon as they heard about the novel coronavirus in Wuhan and detected cases in their countries, the PEOPLE went into social isolation "mode". The symbol of this in Asia is everyone wearing a mask in public - the mask is a sign that everyone understands what is going on. The people of these countries *get it* because they have been through this before. The governments of these countries *get it*. I need Australians to WAKE UP and get it too, before it is too late. I cannot speak for the response of anyone else or any organisation. I am pleading with you to think about YOUR personal response. Let's not wait for anyone to save us, let's save ourselves . As a person that cares deeply about you, your families and the Australian community, I urge you to rapidly adopt a relatively strict version of social isolation and interpersonal distancing. This is what I am doing: 1. Do not leave your home if you do not need to. The safest place for you and your family in a viral epidemic is in your own home. 2. If you are able to work from home, do so. If you are a boss, please let your staff work from home as much as possible. Australians are smart, you'll work it out. 3. When you go out, do not touch another person, in any way, unless you have to. Keep your paws to yourself . 4. When you go out, do not touch any surfaces that you do not need to. Keep your paws to yourself . 5. Cancel all non-essential meetings, find alternative ways to speak and meet online. 6. Wash you hands frequently, especially the moment you walk in your front door. 7. Don't touch your face. 8. Clean your phone several times a day, and don't leave it lying around when you are outside your home. 9. Find smart ways to support local businesses (buy a voucher online), artists (buy a song online ), but do it from the safety of your own home. 10. Talk to your friends, check on vulnerable people, listen to music, make memes, dance in your home, remember to laugh 11. Speak to every single person that is close to you, help them to understand what this social isolation "mode" is, why it is so important, and help them to start doing it, right now. Covid-19 is a virus that passes from person to person, directly or indirectly. If every Australian adopts these measures, we can break the line of transmission between people and avoid the disaster that we are witnessing unfold in the USA and Europe. It is early enough for us to do this, we have time, but a narrowing window to act decisively. It is possible I will get into trouble for saying all of this. But now I do not care, I know in my heart this is the right thing to do, and I am happy to accept any consequences. Please look after yourself, your family and friends . Think for yourself, fact check everything, use your feelings. If you agree that this is the right thing to do, please share this again as widely as possible, every day is critical now. Much love Original post (Friday 13th March 2020): A few people asked me where Australia is at the moment with Covid-19. We reached our 100th case on Tuesday the 10th of March (3 days ago, x-axis), and we now have 199 confirmed cases (y-axis) - I've plotted this point with a red dot. We are testing really well, so it is a fairly accurate number, waaayyy more accurate than the USA which is on the precipice of a total disaster (separate story, I'm so upset). It's at a very early part of the curve, but you can see we are doing really well compared to other industrialised nations (we want to be as close to the Japanese, Singaporean and Hong Kong curves as possible). The next two weeks is absolutely critical to the direction of this curve. Total social isolation, complete interpersonal distancing, combined with massively increased testing (which we have just built capacity for this week in our labs) will flatten this curve and save countless Australian lives. We can do this with no vaccine and no effective antivirals. Each individual simply has to make it their personal responsibility to have minimal contact with all other people. Cancel all unnecessary things. I am running my clinics by phone so patients don't have to come to hospital. We have a narrow window of opportunity to do this, this could not be more urgent. I hope you understand I would not say this if I was not absolutely sure of how critical this is. Please share with your family and friends.
