What is World Health Day?
World Health Day is a chance for us to celebrate all our incredible healthcare workers and remind ourselves of the critical role they play in our society. Right now, they are at the forefront of the COVID-19 response but continue to provide high quality, respectful treatment and care to hundreds of Australians. With challenging months ahead of us, what better time to support and celebrate those giving care for individuals and protecting our broader community.

A message from our Health Workers
It is frustrating for us [medical] students. We do want to help but there are many factors that prevents us from returning to the front lines - such as lack of PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) for us that causes a safety risk"
