MELBOURNE: Deliberate insincerity, intentional irresponsibility and criminal negligence of concerned authorities especially officials of health department are the basic causes of spreading gastro outbreaks across Australia while the bureaucracy, politicians, so-called health experts, medical intellectuals and pundits those are accountable for country’s health and people’s physical condition have totally failed to maintain their basic tasks and monitor their primary liabilities even to control the natural, seasonal, viral, bacterial, social, self-created and anti-human issues, weaknesses, illnesses and pandemics that’s why not only the entire medical and health system of the country is being destroyed but also becoming out of control as intimated and highlighted by PMI and Messenger earlier and claimed by victims, experts and sources.
According to sources, childcare centers in one of second populated Australian States known as Victoria have been hit by gastro outbreaks with case numbers four times higher than average.
The Department of Health issued a warning and said teaching young children about good hand hygiene were critical to stopping the spread.
At least 389 outbreaks have affected childcare centers across the state in 2021.
Last month the health department issued an alert about the alarming number of gastro outbreaks.
“In each case, infection occurs when the ‘bug’ is ingested,” Chief Health Officer Brett Sutton said in a statement at the time.
“This usually happens in childcare settings when unwashed hands are placed directly in mouths or touch food or drinks, or indirectly by touching contaminated surfaces such as taps, toilet flush handles, children’s toys and nappies.”
The best defense against the highly contagious disease is to practice good hygiene by regularly and thoroughly washing hands with soap and running water for at least 20 seconds.
It is especially important to do before and after handling and eating food, after using the toilet, changing nappies, or assisting someone who has vomiting or diarrhea.
“Good old-fashioned hand-washing with soap and water is still the best defense against spreading the bug,” the Department of Health states on its website.
“Clean kitchen tops toys, toilet seats and nappy change tables and taps to ensure you don’t spread the infection to others at home.”
Authorities have also noted hand sanitizer, while effective against some viruses like coronavirus, is not sufficiently effective for preventing viral gastroenteritis.
Beside hundreds of complaints and despite dozens of deaths, neither none of one concerned authority is ready to take serious and practical steps nor does it seem that the administration is serious to control gastro and other pandemics not only in Victoria but in other states too, and this worst Health System caused gastro outbreaks in Australia like many other departments and sectors, sources concluded.
