Australia recorded nearly 60,000 whooping cough cases in 2024, the highest among countries studied.
WA continues to see high levels, with over 1,960 cases, 645 more than last year.
Researchers say reduced spread during COVID, from masks, lockdowns and hand washing, left more people susceptible.🤦

Day 12 of COVID and she’s still struggling— fatigue, hot showers just to wake up and walking her dog while actively sick. She’s missed shifts at her hospital job and is stressed about money and job security. She knows she’s still unwell but feels pressured to return, asking why she’s not recovering.

COVID isn’t acting like the viruses most of us grew up with, and treating it like “just a cold” is putting people at real risk. David Brasure breaks down why SARS-CoV-2 is fundamentally different, how it causes long-term damage, and what we can do to protect ourselves.

COVID is a systemic disease that can harm the brain, heart, immune system and more.
Every reinfection increases the risk of Long COVID, chronic illness, disability and even death.
If people understood the real danger, they’d take prevention seriously instead of accepting repeated infections.

NEW REPORT: Market Forces has identified 200 companies with the biggest coal, oil and gas expansion plans globally — aka the Fossil Fuel Expansion Index, or FFX 200.
These companies are actively driving more extreme #climate disasters. And your super fund probably invests in them.

The Govt bought the land for between $4M and $10M and then sold it back to the seller for $1.27M. It refuses to tell the public (via #FOI) or the Senate (via questions on notice) the purchase price. Maladministration, or something more sinister? #auspol

Today is World AIDS Day.
AIDS has killed 44 million people globally.
Over the years, we've learned that silence and stigma are huge contributors.
Yet, the State Department sent an email to employees stating “The US Government will not be commemorating World AIDS Day this year.”
Silence = Death

The Govt is shifting the deck chairs on the Titanic. This bureaucratic shuffle will be used by @albomp.bsky.social and Richard Marles to dodge responsibility for procurement problems for the rest of this parliamentary term, and probably the next as well. #JustAboutPolitics #auspol

We’re with you Zack!
Ask your MP (state and federal) when NSW residents will see governments plans to support coal workers and communities in the Hunter as coal export markets dry up. AND why we are not taxing coal companies to pay for it!

Australia’s selective justice on international law is indefensible
Australia has pledged to uphold humanitarian law and protect aid workers. But in the face of an ICJ ruling on Gaza, its own anti-terror and accountability laws remain selectively unenforced.
