Fatal virus outbreak at sixth Sydney hospital

A cluster of five COVID-19 cases has been identified at a northern Sydney hospital, health authorities have confirmed, including a patient whose death was announced on Thursday.

The man, in his 80s, was one of three patients who have caught the virus while receiving treatment at Hornsby Hospital. Two staff have also tested positive.Kate Geraghty A spokesperson for Northern Sydney Local Health District said the cases were all believed to be linked. “Hornsby Hospital staff have offered their sincere condolences to the family of a man in his 80s with COVID-19 who died at the hospital,” the spokesperson said.“He was fully vaccinated against COVID-19 yet sadly died with significant underlying health conditions. Hospital staff are providing every support to his family at this difficult time.”

The man was one of seven deaths reported on Thursday, including a 12th in the Liverpool Hospital outbreak which has infected 29 patients since late July. The south-west Sydney man in his 70s was also fully vaccinated and had significant health conditions.Twenty-six of the 107 deaths in NSW’s outbreak have acquired their infection in a public hospital.

Still no reporting on jobseekers and pensioners not receiving a cent of covid support during the entirety of the lockdown. Why is that?

Brad Hazzard strikes again

How the heck can any Govt accept this level of unnecessary deaths... The basic lack of any LEADERSHIP in Australia from the Federal Govt is embarrassing Australia is an Island with a relatively small population, containing this virus was quite possible, it just took LEADERSHIP

On her arrogant head!
