In regards to vaccinations and healthcare I am asking WHY did Nicola Rixon MP now resigned dissolve out divisions of general practice the divisions were equipped to manage a pandemic bring back the divisions of general practice for the GOOD of this country she tried to America use our health system it does not WORK shame Nicola Rixon shame
I had my first Panic attack today at Kincumber Shopping Centre, the amount of people in this place is unbelievable, Kincumber is the new Little Sydney, people everywhere.
Coles has said they have on average 500 people an hour come to the store.
It is such a worry, so much so, it caused much distress as a person doing the right thing and so many not, the panic was overwhelming.
I would sincerely like to thank the young man at Coles today, whom come and spoke to me, and helped through my attack. I was hoping that someone knows the exact rules, as I refuse to go to Kincumber little Sydney again.
