@DenisCOVIDinfoguy @albomp @auscovid19 My support worker is very ill with COVID. She’s expected to go back to work after 5 days. All of her clients are vulnerable.

Not seeing the safety and health of the in-care elderly being adequately protected by #AgedCareBusinesses in #Australia.

Gotta keep those profits rolling in.
Can't waste that cold hard cash on getting #IndoorAirQuality improved.

And @AlboMP and his gov are only providing $15K for each facility to improve air quality. And no insistence that it get used. Last I read the federal Health Department couldn't even say how many of the facilities had taken up the $15K.

Do these pollies, public servants and business owners even give a shit?
Or is it #PigIgnorant incompetence we're seeing in these weekly #AgedCare Covid death figures?
