So I ordered new lenses for my glasses frames. Is the store going to be open still or are they mandated to be shut?
Also...
Kid is due for an orthodontic appointment in the next fortnight. Will the orthodontist still be operating?
And I have a rheumatology appointment I’ve been waiting for 7 months scheduled in the next fortnight. Will I be allowed to attend this appointment / will outpatient care still continue?
Watch how the gvt avoids speaking about pandemic restrictions that affect chronically ill, ppl with disabilities and ppl in sole parenting / non-nuclear family arrangements
We all have differential needs. We’re not all healthy, upper middle class, white, child free and male. Yet the government doesn’t address this. When the Vic Premier appeals to common sense in application of laws, we know laws have always been used by police to screw us
“It’s a pandemic, everyone has to make sacrifices.” The white healthy male isn’t sacrificing his health and quality of life and potentially length of life when outpatient care is cancelled. He isn’t a patient in that system. Ppl with disabilities and the chronically ill are
“It’s to save workers lives.” What of the patient that will have their quality of life permanently impaired and length of life potentially shortened when care is removed. We see the eugenics reflected in the choices and policy values of the government
I watch the silence of the response of ppl who think they care about social justice and your silence is consent to gvt decisions that have and will lead to death for ppl with disabilities and chronically ill ppl
A friend was dropped from Alfred Health outpatient appointments waiting list after a year’s wait. When she complained, she was told 12k specialist outpatient appointments were cancelled cos of covid-19. Not suspended. Cancelled. To get back on the list, they need new referrals
Nothing in the media about it, no questions asked. You assholes
