Advocating for consumer rights as we live with COVID

We recently held another in our series of Consumer Conversations in relation to COVID. On 12 December 2023, consumers had the opportunity to hear from Dr Andy Robertson, WA Health’s Chief Health Officer.

Based on that discussion, and the questions raised before and after, we have today sent a briefing of consumer sentiments about COVID to WA Health leaders, including the Director General, and the Chief Executives of the Health Service Providers.

You can read this briefing here: COVID Health Consumer sentiments HCC December 2023

We know that many people remain concerned about COVID, and are concerned at the lack of awareness in the general population of the risks that COVID still poses.

In 2024, we are planning to host further community updates with health leaders to help inform the community about this important health issue.
