    2024 declared as Australia’s worst influenza season as cases soar

    I have found that the older I get the more health problems I get ! I don’t need flu or covid on top of my other problems, so I regularly get flu and covid shots.

And we bought up our children the same way. But it seems to me that the generation after that things got a bit lax and the later one are even...

    TGA’s reform set to reduce paracetamol pack sizes across Australia

    What a load of BS ! As if 4 tablets were going to make a difference. I very much doubt 16 or even 20 Panadol would cause death! If they are that dangerous why aren’t they pharmacy only ? Also what’s to stop people buying more than one packet ? I usually buy Panamax, 100 for $3 or $4 🤷‍♀️
