24.01.2022 If you’ve had your first dose of the AstraZeneca vaccine without developing Thrombosis with Thrombocytopenia Syndrome (TTS) or experiencing another serious adve...rse event, then you can safely receive your second dose regardless of your age. The risk of developing the rare blood clotting condition TTS following a second dose of COVID-19 Vaccine AstraZeneca is much lower than the risk following a first dose. ATAGI does not currently recommend switching to another COVID-19 vaccine type. The AstraZeneca vaccine remains highly effective at preventing death and severe illness among people who have contracted COVID-19 and the incidence of the blood-clotting syndrome is very rare when aged over 60 years.

14.01.2022 If you are planning a visit to a residential aged care facility, ensure you meet the criteria and be mindful of the restrictions to protect vulnerable people within our community. To be permitted to visit you must: Have documentation of your flu vaccination Have no symptoms of illness... Have not travelled overseas or interstate in the last 14 days Be over 16 years old (unless providing end of life support to a resident) If you are able to visit, you can now go for a walk with your relative, as residents are able to leave the site for exercise (within 500m of the facility). Visitors providing professional services to residents, such as hairdressers, can also visit. If you are looking for a residential aged care facility for your relative, you can also visit along with the prospective resident. Visitors providing end of life support can still visit if they haven’t been able to receive their flu vaccination, but they must get vaccinated as soon as possible after their initial visit.

08.01.2022 Animals exposed to the heat can suffer dehydration and severe stress. But you can keep your pets cool this summer by following these tips. If you don’t have any pets, you may consider leaving small bowls of water in your garden so wildlife can keep cool too.

08.01.2022 Have you ever had glandular fever, also known as infectious mononucleosis, Mono or the ‘kissing disease’? If so, you’re not alone, as up to 95% of people have... been infected by the virus that causes glandular fever by adulthood. Glandular fever is caused by the Epstein Barr virus (EBV) and up to half of the people carrying the virus have no symptoms of infection at all. EBV can be spread through contact with saliva. For young adults in particular, kissing is known to spread the virus. Young children may be infected by saliva on the hands of caregivers or by sucking toys. Symptoms of glandular fever most often occurs in older children and young adults, and for young children symptoms are usually mild or can be absent. Symptoms include: fever sore throat swollen glands Less frequent symptoms include abdominal pain and jaundice (yellowing of skin and eyes). If you or your child has any symptoms, visit your GP.
