This is a really exciting position joint between my lab, the Austrakka team with @torstenseemann, the Kirby institute and many other partners across Australia to develop tools to support 'real-time' HIV and HCV epidemiology. Reach out if you want to discuss the role further.

The @BiobotAnalytics data page shows wastewater testing for COVID is the best leading measure of cases, and the only reliable indicator when PCR testing systems fail.
So why did @NSWHealth @SydneyWaterNews quietly scrap their program in December?

Are there any independent mask testing labs/individuals in Australia testing kids KF94/P2/N95 masks?
It would be great to start a list similar to testing by
@masknerd with locally available brands in time for return to school. #CovidSafeSchools @ilanafish @JayneFlan

Early data indicating Australia’s consumer spending has been driven off a cliff, closely following the health impact on its citizens after letting covid rip.
A totally avoidable disaster for health AND the business and workers. Certain to get worse.
ANZ data shows spending is now at its worst since Delta lockdowns, and Sydney spending for the week to 5 Jan was at its weakest since COVID began. Caution about Omicron transmission and disruptions of businesses due to staff shortages are central to the decline. #ausbiz #omicron
ALT Chart shows Sydney spending levels below Melbourne's and Australia's, with Sydney and Melbourne well below pre-covid levels.
