Greg Hunt (pictured above) has lauded the efforts of operators and their staff in trying to prevent the spread of COVID-19 in Australia’s aged care homes during an interview with Alan Jones on 2GB yesterday morning.
“If you asked me what is my greatest worry it would be major breakouts in our nursing homes, because these are our most vulnerable. And what we have seen is obviously one tragedy in the Dorothy Henderson Lodge where three lives have been lost,” he said.
“But, a remarkable set of actions by our nursing homes, their amazing nursing staff and care staff and operators around the country where they have put in place what they do with influenza.”
