Yesterday, we talked about when, nearly 50 years ago, two icons of the modern age combined – The Rolling Stones and Andy Warhol. The cutting edges of popular music and contemporary art. Warhol once said, ‘in the future, everyone will be famous for 15 minutes’. I thought I’d make the post famous for more than 15 minutes and use another iconic album cover.

 

 

 

 

PartridgeGP has been chosen to be one of the practices that may deliver the COVID vaccinations to you in phase 1b of the rollout. Remember how the Stones and Warhol broke up?

 

 

We await some further paperwork and advice from the Federal Government via Adelaide PHN in regard to exactly what their requirements of us are. Hopefully, their brief will have more in common with Mick’s missive above than the 16 different new item numbers they have generated for the act of marrying vaccines and patients in the community. Otherwise, it could all end like Warhol and the Stones – when Mick Jagger took it upon himself to handwrite the track names over Warhol’s art. Warhol never forgave him and their partnership ended there.

Just a little bit more information for you…

 

 

 

 

 

Now the vaccine is not compulsory, or mandatory. Fair work has this to say:

 

 

There are currently no laws or public health orders in Australia that specifically enable employers to require their employees to be vaccinated against coronavirus. The Australian Government’s policy is that receiving a vaccination is voluntary, although it aims to have as many Australians vaccinated as possible.

For everyone, we believe that having a usual GP or General Practice is central to each person’s care and recommend that people with any health issues that come to the attention of other health professionals should be advised to attend their usual GP or General Practice rather than a specialised service (ie a place not providing the holistic care a specialist GP would).   If  they say that they don’t have a usual GP or general practice, they should be helped to find one and to actually attend it. Call PartridgeGP on 82953200 or make an appointment online here.
