The National Cabinet has agreed to a nationwide mental health and wellbeing pandemic plan to help people during the coronavirus crisis, as well as the resumption of all elective surgeries in some jurisdictions.
"Today the Prime Minister, supported by Christine Morgan [from the National Mental Health Commission], took that plan through National Cabinet with unanimous support," Federal Health Minister Greg Hunt said.
Great and let's continue to sustain the focus on mental health and just because surgeries are done as electives doesn't mean they aren't important as it's not uncommon for many surgeries that remove malignant tumours to be considered 'elective surgery' too.
