The Albanese Government has committed to creating a centre for disease control, noting that Australia is the only OECD country without one.
Australia had more than 10 million COVID cases this year. But how many more went unrecorded?

We’ve always known official COVID case data didn't capture the full scope of transmission, but 2022 was the year that Australia lost grip of just how big an underestimate it is.

Sometime today, the 19,000th Canadian will die from Covid in 2022.

Last year, and in 2020, 15,000 Canadians died.

That’s a 26% INCREASE in the year that we knew the most about Covid transmission, prevention, and treatment.

This is a public health and political failure.

Sad news. A great satirist and with John Fortune, a formidable commentator.
