David Harris was left to die alone after his NDIS payments were cut offThe sister of a Sydney man who died alone at home after his support payments were cut off is demanding an inquiry to establish how he was allowed to fall through the cracks. Truly appalling.This is Australia today,2020.Surely people who are recipients of NDIS must have a case manager who are advocates for them.Miss an appointment & payment stopped with no follow up.Disgusting. The NDIS Quality and Safeguards Commission said it had investigated Mr Harris's death and found there had been 'no breaches of the Code of Conduct by the provider'. I guess we wait for the inevitable coroner’s findings to find out if the “code of conduct” is up to scratch. Life is not easy for any of us. But what of that?

Young people warned about coronavirus amid relaxed dining rulesHealth authorities in NSW confirm three new cases of coronavirus, bringing the state's total to 3,086. What are the neurological consequences of the coronavirus? Interesting to contrast the tone of the messaging between Australia and NZ. There it’s come along with us and help us stop out this virus. Here it’s don’t be bad people... Says much about our political “leadership”...all about admonition and bullying. Some hope! The yobos didn't listen 6 weeks ago when the rest of us were doing as we were told, what makes this bloke think they are going to listen now. Stock up on more dunny roll.
