As has happened in the past, we are currently seeing another increase in COVID-19 cases in South Australia. In addition, we are beginning to see an expected increase in flu cases which is what we usually see in the cooler months.

These rising cases in the community, will likely result in an increase in presentations to our hospitals of people with respiratory illnesses in the coming weeks.

In this segment, we hear from Professor Nicola Spurrier, the Chief Public Health Officer for SA Health and has accountability for public health and communicable disease issues. Noel Lally, who is is the Acting Executive Director, Communicable Disease Control Branch and has been working in SA Health since 2009. His focus has largely been on immunisation, working across government, non-government and tertiary education sectors to coordinate and lead state-wide delivery of the Jurisdictional and National Immunisation Programs.
