CMO rejects claims govt failed to enact aged care COVIDsafe plan | Sky News AustraliaThe Acting Chief Health Officer has denied accusations the government failed to have a COVIDsafe plan in place for the aged care sector which has seen 125 deaths at facilities across Victoria.\n\nThe Royal Commission into Aged Care will today hear evidence from a top expert in aged care policy who said he advised the government to send ADF personnel or other workers into aged care homes in April.\n\nProfessor Paul Kelly defended the national strategy saying the aged care sector was included in the response planning from the beginning. \n\nHe said the Australian Health Sector Response Plan, which was formulated in January and launched by the Prime Minister in February, “makes very specific mention of those vulnerable groups”. \n\nThe commission heard on Tuesday that there were disputes between officials over whether to send sick coronavirus patients from Sydney’s Newmarch House to hospital. \n\nReports emerged on Wednesday of similar incidents occurring in Melbourne which has seen sick elderly patients turned away from hospital, leaving them isolated in understaffed aged care facilities. \n\n Image: AP Does Matt Hancock work over there too guys? 👍🏼 There's nothing to deny when it's a fact. FatherBob Then they should be able to release the plan that was circulated, the date it was written and reviewed etc
