In this Healthed lecture, A/Prof Wood, will talk about the recent outbreaks and clusters in Australia primarily due to the Delta variant. A/Prof Wood will provide a detailed practical understanding of this variant as well as the “Delta Plus” and other variants of concern that may end up in Australia. As we pivot toward the Pfizer vaccine, we may start to see cases of myocarditis. It is essential for everyone working in primary care to get up to speed on this.

In addition, A/Prof Wood will explore strategies to improve vaccine uptake and overcome vaccine anxiety and hesitancy, provide an update on clots, and cover any other important developments with significant implications for primary care and the broader community.
