Mask truth: medical masks for clinicians 98% protection. Cloth mask 10-60% but better than nothing! Wear a mask on public transport. Give mask a soapy wash daily; on/off with clean hands; store in ziplock bag. #Covid19aus #coronavirusAustralia

Saying masks on trains/buses will produce complacency like arguing vaccines stop hygiene practices. Truth: medical masks for clinicians 98% protection. Cloth mask 10-60% but better than nothing! soapy wash daily; on/off with clean hands,🤐 while wearing mask, store in ziplock bag

14 days from last 0 case for each state indicates confidence community spread negligible. We aren't there yet. "Precautionary Principle" states we sometimes need to act in absence of evidence - please wear a mask on public transport/planes.

What tests should be deployed in #schools to ascertain if children are/are not spreading the virus? Prof. @MarylouiseMcla1 -- "Children are now being asked to have their #temperature taken at the gate & hand hygiene. Having a breath test is epidemiologically important." #COVID19

6 WHO criteria easing restrictions. These Points important for us:
*Capacities to detect, isolate, treat, trace;
*Risks minimised in special setting e.g RACFs;
*Prevention strategy for workplace, schools & e.g. transport;
*Community educated, engaged, empowered in “new norm”.

"It’s a dangerous time to roll back the restrictions without knowing that we’re doing it safely in an atmosphere of very few hidden cases."
@UNSWMedicine epidemiologist and @WHO advisor, @MarylouiseMcla1 recommends Australian #COVID19 restrictions stay until at least June.

"Australia should push for zero coronavirus cases before easing up our strict social distancing rules," says @MarylouiseMcla1 #auspol #nswpol #COVID19Aus #coronavirusAus
As Australia charts its path out of lockdown, there’s one activity you’ll soon be able to do again. But others you’ll be waiting a while for.
