With record levels of COVID-19 hospitalisations, staff shortages and funding issues, healthcare workers say Australia's health system is on the brink of collapse.

“We need to replenish our health and aged care workforce, ensuring we are identifying, training and recruiting doctors and nurses for Australia,” the government said.

Record COVID-19 hospitalisations are simply the “straw that broke the camel’s back” of a healthcare system that has been in disrepair for years, he said. “It means that winter is a much more difficult time to deal with, and it's going to be almost impossible if we're going to continue to have high rates over winter,” Professor Bennett said.

Yes but: FREEDUMB!! My body my choice!!! The government!!! These people are completely indoctrinated to not give a shit.

Wear a mask 😷

Thx you vax…

Pandemic of the vaxxed.

Remember how the 'experts' said we must have 'masks mandated, lockdowns, vaccine passports ' to stop the hospitals being overwhelmed? Ever wonder why they're not saying that now despite the situation being objectively worse? Almost as if it was never intended to resolve it.

Maybe re-employ all those experienced staff who refused the BS vax. Surely they've had enough punishment. Or are you all embarrassed that those morons actually knew something that took you another 12 months to work out?

Hate to be the bearer of bad news...it collapsed along time ago with the ambulance system

Record levels of hospitalizations due to covid … but weren’t we told over and over again getting vaxed would prevent this? After the 1st jab we were told a 2nd would work, after the 2nd we were told a 3rd would work, now they want us to believe in a 4th or 5th jab? 🤦🏻‍♂️🤯

pully8 perhaps we need a vaccine that will stop you contracting Covid19 not reducing the effects

Just keep getting your vaccinations, that should solve the problem right?
