The TGA has made an interim decision to not reschedule MDMA and psilocybin to treat mental illness in Australia. 9News

Mind Medicine Australia initially submitted the rescheduling applications to the TGA in July 2020, and now have a number of weeks to resubmit evidence."The beauty of this is that it is consultative," he told Nine.com.au.

Tania de Jong AM, also a co-founder of the charity, said people with severe treatment-resistant mental illness should not be denied a cure. "Nothing else is working for them. It is time to give all Australians, who live with multiple failed attempts at recovery, the opportunity to access treatments that will improve and save lives."

Dr Simon Longstaff AO, Executive Director of the Ethics Centre and MMA board member said one of the biggest hurdles is the stigma."If these medicines are safe and effective when applied in a clinical environment, as current research suggests, then Australian governments have an obligation to make them available.

Experts call for TGA-approved rapid COVID-19 tests to be used in AustraliaSome medical experts say the use of rapid COVID-19 tests could help Australia recover from coronavirus clusters faster and are 'frustrated' by state and federal health authorities who say the current use of lab-based tests are 'sufficient'. Here are the UK govt's mortality figures for the past 20 years. The 'pandemic' is less lethal than every year 2000-2010. The virus is real. The corporate takeover/police state dystopian nightmare we now face, is more real. Funny thing is, Australia was the first to make a rapid test equipment, the U.S.A took it on board and use it with approval of the FDA, why do we reject our own marvellous inventions?
