By means of my work at St Vincent’s I see what occurs to individuals who get actually sick with Covid, who come into our hospital.
I see the loneliness, I see the isolation, you might be sick, and you’ll’t have your family members round you. I don’t need that, and I’m certain you don’t need that both.
There’s one explicit Aboriginal affected person we’ve got sorted, whose case actually caught out for me. He was actually unwell with Covid. And being in ICU on a ventilator for a lot of weeks. With no household round him.
He’s on the mend now and doing OK now. However he’s scared and hopes he by no means will get the virus once more and is now asking for a vaccine to forestall this ever occurring to him once more.
That’s why proper now for all Aboriginal individuals throughout New South Wales, we have to take heed to the premier and the well being professionals, we have to shield one another, particularly mob from this virus.
