by chance andrew didn't receive the same shot as the health boss who's also currently in hospital 🤔

Sorry to hear about Dan Andrews. His injuries sound quite serious... Wishing him a speedy recovery...

Maybe he can resign so Victorians have a decent Premier!

No one cares.

Some absolutely shameful comments here when he did well to contain covid. Hope DanielAndrewsMP makes a speedy recovery.

Disgusted at these comments. He is a human being. Have some decency. Hope he is okay. ❤ regardless wether you like his decisions or not in the past and present have some common decency. Honestly

Are sure it wasn't the CCP making sure he keeps up his end of the deal?

FFS Andrews, what a pathetic selfish act, taking up the space of an intensive care bed for a couple of broken ribs when the only cure is rest, time and pain killers. An intensive bed that could have been occupied by more needy elderly Victorian patient, GRUB

Intensive care for several broken ribs and vertebrae damage, are you joking Andrews, you are taking up an intensive care bed over and above what real intensive care patients need.

This news broke this morning... it’s no longer breaking

If this was a workers comp case the employer and insurance company will still try and prove his fake even with MRI scans and other specialist opinions. Lucky for him he won't have to go through that stress while trying to recover.

At least he's not a rapist

I reckon he did a good job getting self entitled Victorians out of COVID 19 hope he's on the mend.

He survived....shame....

Karma? No but on a serious note I do hope he's ok
