New South Wales Health stands down two nurses after video emerges of them threatening to kill Israeli patients.

Listen to the top News of 12/02/2025 from Australia in Hindi.

Two nurses from Bankstown Hospital in New South Wales have been sacked after appearing in a disgusting antisemitic video. Federal Health Minister Mark Butler told Peter Fegan on 4BC Breakfast, "I'm advised that the relevant New South Wales Authority that has responsibility for their registration as nurses has been asked to consider an interim suspension of their registration as a nurse." "Because I'm worried that even though they've been suspended from New South Wales Health, I don't want them working in another private hospital or an aged care facility." "We've got to lock these people out of the health system entirely," Mr. Butler said.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Authorities in New South Wales are warning the Australian state is seeing its highest levels of Covid in a year.  The surge comes at the tail end of the holiday period, with about 1,400 people going to emergency departments and 400 being admitted to hospital each week.  New South Wales Health advises people to stay home if they have symptoms.  Australia correspondent Murray Olds told Tim Dower that the bulk of cases aren't serious, as the two dominant variants right now mostly lead to only minor symptoms.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Nagpatakbo ang New South Wales Health ng state-wide COVID-19 vaccination blitz para sa katutubong komunidad ngayong weekend.

New South Wales Premier Gladys Berejiklian has faced repeated questions over whether she was too slow to respond to health advice about a super-spreader event blamed for entrenching the Delta outbreak in Sydney's south-west. A parliamentary inquiry has revealed New South Wales Health knew on the 24th of June it had failed to contain a cluster linked to a birthday party held at Hoxton Park five days earlier. - Ginisa si New South Wales Premier Gladys Berejiklian sa ginawang parliamentary inquiry kung saan paulit-ulit tinanong kung bakit mabagal ang pagpapatupad ng lockdown sa Sydney; ilang timeline din sa insidente ang sinuri, pero giit nito batayan nila ang heath advise ng mga eksperto.

There's a lot to get through in this week's podcast, not least the new regulations on pets in strata which replace the now defunct blanket bans on pets. Even so, Jimmy finds time to indulge in not one but two full-on rants. But first, we talk about noise, specifically from kids playing in and around strata blocks during lockdown. Is it even reasonable to ask parents to tell their kids to keep the noise down?  And should we be bothered if they draw a hopscotch grid on the driveway in chalk? And then there's the noise from renovations. In Victoria, during lockdowns, renos in apartment blocks are banned if there is even just one apartment occupied at the time – end of story. LISTEN HERE In NSW, provided you have no more than two tradies working in any apartment at any given time, you can have as many renos going on in the same block as you want. What about all the people forced to work from home and not able to go out for anything except shopping and exercise? Welcome to rant No.1. Then we have the new pet regulations (which came out after we had recorded and edited the podcast, so we had to go back in and do that part all over again).  The new amendment to the NSW strata Act say schemes can't have by-laws that bans pets unreasonably. And now you have retrospective regs that define “reasonable”, all of which makes it easier for residents to have pets, but easier for owners corps to remove them if they cause a nuisance, by defining exactly what a nuisance might be. As you can read in this story, the onus is now on owners to have strata-friendly pets rather than find pet-friendly strata schemes. And here is the promised link to the Companion Animals Act, which is referenced in the new regulations. Finally, we talk about all the positives coming from the lockdowns, specifically the ways in which strata residents are helping each other get through all this. And this includes rant No.2 – if you are a member of the Potts Pointers Facebook group, you might want to give this a listen. Enjoy. TRANSCRIPT IN FULL Jimmy  00:00 I am shocked and disappointed, Sue Williams. Sue  00:04 Something I've done? Jimmy  00:06 I've been writing a lot on the website, about how little concern is given to apartment residents by New South Wales Health. I've been saying there should be somebody in there who knows about apartment living and then I found out last week, that two of the ministers in the Crisis Cabinet are former Fair Trading Ministers. Sue  00:32 Really? Jimmy  00:32 Yeah, so we're going to be talking about that, later. We're going to be talking about noise, during lockdown. We're going to be talking about the new pet laws that come in this week and, we're going to talk about some of the good things that are happening during lockdown in apartments. I'm Jimmy Thomson, I write the Flat Chat column for the Australian Financial Review. Sue  00:55 And I'm Sue Williams and I write about property for Domain. Jimmy  00:58 And this is the Flat Chat Wrap. [MUSIC] Jimmy Noise in and around the lockdown, Sue.  I mean, noise in apartments is one of the big issues, anyway and I've had a couple of posts to the Flat Chat forum this week, from people complaining about noisy children, like in normal times... Children running around, screaming and shouting and they're not able to get any peace and quiet. Sue  01:39 Yeah, that would be very hard, wouldn't it? Especially I suppose, in lockdown, when kids are cooped up. Jimmy  01:43 Yeah. Well, we saw a story in the Sydney Morning Herald (or was at the Sun-Herald), this week, about parents who've had complaints against them;  notices sent by their Owners Corporations, about the children playing on common property and using chalk to draw hopscotch grids. What can you do? You've got kids in the house, you're not allowed to go out for more than an hour at a time.

New South Wales Health is trying to justify the decision by saying it doesn't want to overwhelm people with too much information.

We had a new PHO out last week – that's a Public Health Order, not a Vietnamese noodle soup – and as we discuss in the pod, it's more of a dog's breakfast from NSW Health. Are we supposed to allow renovations in apartments when people are being told to stay inside and even work from home? Are cleaners essential workers? How about building managers? Does anybody in NSW Health realise that apartments and townhouses are significantly different from each other and, certainly, from free-standing bungalows? When they tell us to pass by-laws to fill the gaps in their legislation, do they even know that that means and how hard it can be. LISTEN HERE Do they know that some blocks – maybe even the majority – don't have building managers, strata managers or even active committees? Or that half the strata population are tenants with zero effective say in the way their blocks are run? Is anyone in Fair Trading trying to explain the facts of strata life to the Health Department policymakers … and are they listening? We ask former OCN board member and active advocate for strata residents Jane Hearn what NSW Health is thinking, if anything.   Also in the pod, we discuss this story about a new star ratings system for new apartment blocks in NSW and try desperately not to be too cynical. And we discover a tiny skerrick of good news for owners in Mascot Towers. TRANSCRIPT IN FULL Jimmy  0:00  I've got a bit of a confession to make. Sue  0:01  What? Jimmy  0:03   I think I might have Olympic fever. Sue  0:06  What's Olympic fever, Jimmy? Jimmy  0:08  Well, I started to suspect this, when the figures came out last week for the new number of infections in Sydney. There were 96 and my immediate response was to go "come on, Australia! Come on, Sydney; you can do it!" Which is probably an inappropriate response. Sue  0:28  Absolutely, yes, but the Olympics have been amazing. Jimmy  0:32  Terrific relief from all this doom and gloom, of which there is much. Sue  0:37  It's been fantastic for keeping us occupied during lockdown. Jimmy  0:40  Yes and keeping us thinking about going to the gym, or having a swim or whatever. Today, we will not be talking about the Olympics; we'll be talking about a new scheme that the government's bringing in to have a star rating for new developments. And, we'll be talking about the latest public health orders and how confusing (and confused), they are, when it comes to apartments. And, finally, a tiny little bit of good news for the people in Mascot Towers. I'm Jimmy Thomson. I write the Flat Chat column for the Australian Financial Review. Sue  1:20  And I'm Sue Williams and I write about property for Domain. Jimmy  1:23  And this is the Flat Chat Wrap. [MUSIC] Jimmy This weekend, we had yet another public health order from New South Wales Health. Once again, apartments seemed to be totally beyond their capacity for thought or concern, because in their bureaucratic gobbledygook (because of pressure from the construction industry), they have now removed all restraints on building work, apart from in the eight local government areas that are in southwest Sydney, that are currently the worst affected by the pandemic. What this means is, on one hand, you've got the Premier, Gladys and the Health Minister, Brad, saying you've got to stay home; just stay home. Just don't go out. Don't leave; if you can work from home, work from home and people, generally, seem to be doing that. Sue  2:31  On the other hand, you've got construction workers allowed back into apartment buildings to redo bathrooms and redo kitchens and carry on with the renovation frenzy, that we're all in. Jimmy  2:43  And one suspects, it's all done on that basis of 'well, if you wanted to have a nice life, you should never have bought an apartment.' Sue  2:53  So with that in mind, we had a chat to Jane Hearn.

As the world wrestles with the COVID-19 pandemic, it's clear that much depends on our ability to vaccinate a large proportion of the population. Like all medications, vaccines have their side effects, and the most notable at present is an unusual syndrome of intravascular clotting associated with thrombocytopaenia. Dr Tim Brighton is a consultant haematologist with New South Wales Health, and a participant in a recent working party that developed guidelines for the detection and management of this important condition, known as Vaccine Induced Thrombotic Thrombocytopaenia, or VITT.

There's a saying going around that it's the hope that kills you - and certainly, fans of the Scotland, Sweden, France, Netherlands and German football teams at the European Championships would concur. Of course, it's nonsensense. If anything kills you, it's complacency. You walk around feeling like you're immune and then you find out the person sitting next to you in a cafe definitely wasn't virus-free, and your attitude changes quickly. So in this week's podcast Sue and I chat about what it's like to be self-quarantining (we were deemed to have been close contacts with an infected person) and ask why NSW Health doesn't want to tell people in apartments just to take a few minor sensible extra precautions. LISTEN HERE We also look at the tragic and terrible apartment block collapse in Miami and what that might and maybe should mean for buildings of the same age constructed in a similar fashion here in Australia. Interestingly, a comment piece by our very good friend and strata expert Cathy Sherry appeared in the Sydney Morning Herald the day after we recorded our podcast, and it pretty much confirms everything we were saying. Meanwhile, I'll just take a break from self-congratulation to point out an error I made in the podcast where I referred to the apartment block in Melbourne' Southbank as Kings Court. I should have said Kings Park.  If you Google “Kings Court” you might find a very different kind of establishment … so don't! No! I said don't! Or at least remember to clean up your search history when you're done. TRANSCRIPT IN FULL Jimmy  0:00 It's very quiet today. Sue  0:01 It really is! Jimmy  0:03 It's quieter than normal, when we do our podcast. Sue  0:09 And that's because we're in Sydney. Jimmy  0:10 And, we're in the middle of lockdown-central. Sue  0:13 Absolutely! Jimmy  0:14 Even more lockdown than most people, because we are actually in quarantine. We are in quarantine, because of close contact. We spend half our lives in cafes, and it was bound to happen, sooner or later. Sue  0:28 An infected person was in the cafe at the same time as us, apparently. Jimmy  0:32 Let's talk about that in a minute, and we're going to talk about this tragedy; this horrible tragedy, in Miami. I'm Jimmy Thomson, I write the Flat Chat column for the Australian Financial Review. Sue  0:46 And I'm Sue Williams and I write about property for Domain. Jimmy  0:48 And this is the Flat Chat Wrap. [MUSIC} Jimmy Well, while our theme music was playing, there was a very atmospheric ambulance siren in the background. Kind of appropriate, but difficult to edit. We had that heart-sink feeling, earlier last week, when we looked at the list of places where infected people had been at and discovered we had been in the same cafe at the same time. Sue  1:28 It was a bit depressing, wasn't it, really? Jimmy  1:30 It was a bit alarming, because we didn't really know what to do. Sue  1:35 It was funny, because we didn't receive a notice through our apps, because we'd signed in. I think the app was a bit faulty, or it blipped, or something and it missed it. So, it was up to us to look up where we'd been and the times; work out with our diaries, whether that was the same time as well and then voluntarily go into quarantine. Jimmy  1:55 It was a bit pathetic, wasn't it? I mean, we're going "okay, what day was it, we had the cheese toasties? What day was it that our friend came and sat and talked to us?" Yes. That was the final clincher when she called up and said "hey, I'm in isolation and you should be, too." Sue  2:12 Yeah, absolutely. Jimmy  2:13 So, we went on the New South Wales Health website and it told us to immediately make our way to a testing place. We went along to the testing station; there was hardly anybody there, to begin with and then suddenly, all these people started turning up with their mobile phones, looking at messages.

On this new edition of Cory Talks… New South Wales finally admits a lockdown is required, although the message from New South Wales Health and the government is not as clear as other jurisdictions. https://nsw.gov.au/covid-19 The Northern Territory announced today a snap 48-hour lockdown in three areas of the Top End.

An Australian traveller from Sydney, who visited Wellington from Saturday 19 June until Monday 21 June, has tested positive for COVID-19 upon their return to Australia. Late on Tuesday night, New South Wales Health issued an alert identifying passengers on two flights between Sydney and Wellington as close contacts of at least one case of Covid-19. The flights were Qantas QF-163, which left Sydney on Friday the 18th June and landed in Wellington just after midnight on Saturday 9 June and Air New Zealand NZ-247, which left Wellington on the morning of Monday 21 June. Based on the time of their symptom onset and CT score it is most likely they contracted the virus in Sydney prior to their visit to New Zealand. This is the first time an Australian traveller has brought COVID-19 to NZ, and since gone home. Genome sequencing is underway in Australia to see if the case is linked to the current outbreak in Sydney. New Zealand authorities were notified by their Australian counterparts last night and will be contacting the case's close contacts and getting further information about their movements while in Wellington. At this stage four close contacts have been identified and are isolating. Sites of interest that were visited will be advised as further contact tracing is undertaken. People who have been at these sites will need to isolate and should contact Healthline for further advice. Epidemiologist Michael Baker spoke to Corin Dann.

Wellington is on high-alert after a traveller from Sydney, who visited the captial at the weekend, tested positive for Covid-19 on their return to Australia.

Any passengers on those flights have been asked to isolate immediately and call healthline for more information. The Director-General of Health, Ashley Bloomfield, told Morning Report health workers are currently collating any places of interest in Wellington, and those should be released this morning. Wellington mayor Andy Foster spoke to Corin Dann.

Wellington is on high-alert after a traveller from Sydney, who visited the captial at the weekend, tested positive for Covid-19 on their return to Australia. Late last night, New South Wales Health issued an alert identifying passengers on two flights between Sydney and Wellington as close contacts. T he flights were Qantas QF-163, which left Sydney on Friday 18 June and landed in Wellington just after midnight on Saturday 19 June and Air New Zealand NZ-247, which left Wellington on the morning of Monday 21 June. Any passengers on those flights have been asked to isolate immediately and call healthline for more information. The Director-General of Health, Ashley Bloomfield, told Morning Report health workers are currently collating any places of interest in Wellington, and those should be released this morning. Wellington mayor Andy Foster spoke to Corin Dann.

An Australian traveller from Sydney, who visited Wellington from Saturday 19 June until Monday 21 June, has tested positive for COVID-19 upon their return to Australia. Late on Tuesday night, New South Wales Health issued an alert identifying passengers on two flights between Sydney and Wellington as close contacts of at least one case of Covid-19. The flights were Qantas QF-163, which left Sydney on Friday the 18th June and landed in Wellington just after midnight on Saturday 9 June and Air New Zealand NZ-247, which left Wellington on the morning of Monday 21 June. Based on the time of their symptom onset and CT score it is most likely they contracted the virus in Sydney prior to their visit to New Zealand. This is the first time an Australian traveller has brought COVID-19 to NZ, and since gone home. Genome sequencing is underway in Australia to see if the case is linked to the current outbreak in Sydney. New Zealand authorities were notified by their Australian counterparts last night and will be contacting the case's close contacts and getting further information about their movements while in Wellington. At this stage four close contacts have been identified and are isolating. Sites of interest that were visited will be advised as further contact tracing is undertaken. People who have been at these sites will need to isolate and should contact Healthline for further advice. Epidemiologist Michael Baker spoke to Corin Dann.

Covid-19 is back in the news in new, super-infectious variants, and in the podcast this week we ask the highly relevant question of what do you do if it comes to your apartment block? Do you expect everyone in your block to be told that someone is self-isolating because they have been tested, or were in a certain place at the same time as an infected person, or if they just have a bit of a cough and the sniffles? Would you be annoyed if you were that person and all your neighbours were warned to stay well clear of you?  Do we have to wait for a resident to get the bug? And should our entire block be locked down if someone does? LISTEN HERE Should residents in “hot” zones be wearing masks in lifts and carparks right now or do we have to wait for the state government to tell us what to do? The Owners Corporation Network is asking NSW Health to take strata seriously (they say they are) and strata lawyer Amanda Farmer has advised us all to stay vigilant. We say, most blocks watch the states' health departments' notices slavishly, so we need some clear advice now, so we can be ready. Then we follow the story of the woman whose leaky balcony was getting up her nose – literally – in the form of black mould. And that story has led to a revelation about Victorian balconies in the Forum. And, finally, three big developers face a range of negative reactions as their projects are rejected or are in serious trouble, while real estate agents are in the crosshairs for not warning prospective purchasers. All that and more in this week's Flat Chat Wrap.  Transcript in Full Jimmy  0:00  There's a lot going on in apartments this week and a lot of news and not much of it very good. We've got the lockdown of the apartment block in Melbourne. We've got the spread of the Coronavirus in Sydney and the call by OCN for New South Wales Health to actually have protocols for apartment blocks. Sue  0:24  Sounds like a good idea. Jimmy  0:26  And we've got developers getting themselves into all sorts of trouble. Plenty to talk about! I'm Jimmy Thomson; I write the Flat Chat column for the Australian Financial Review. Sue  0:38  And I'm Sue Williams and I write about property for Domain Jimmy  0:41  And this is the Flat Chat Wrap. [MUSIC] Jimmy So, lockdown of an apartment block in Melbourne and then virus spreading through... I mean, I don't know if you can even call it casual contact... Passing clouds. Sue  1:10  Absolutely! That's a real worry, isn't it? Jimmy  1:12  It is and they are connected, these things. The apartment block in Melbourne; apparently, the transmission of the virus was through people passing in the carpark. These are townhouses, although it looks like an apartment block from the pictures. These are basically townhouses and they have their own front doors to the outside. So you're thinking, well, how's the transmission going on here? Apparently, it was in the communal carpark, underneath. Sue  1:43  That puts it on another level completely, doesn't it? Jimmy  1:47  Well, yes, in so many ways, Sue. Then, we hear about the spread from the Bondi Junction shopping center and they've actually found CCTV, where they've got the original infected person and saw him basically brush past. I don't know even if they made physical contact or walked in the vicinity of the person who got infected and that's all it took. Basically, two people, breathing the same air. Sue  2:17  So, what can you suggest to help keep apartment and townhouse residents safer? Jimmy  2:24  Stay home! Look, the Owners Corporation Network has sent out a press release. It's actually a letter that they sent in February to New South Wales Health, saying "come on, you've got to come up with a protocol for apartment blocks." Remember back a year ago, or a little bit more. We were outraged that Airbnb hosts were saying "come and self -isolate in our apartmen...

Welcome to the Cory Talks Podcast! On this brand-new episode… As Victoria gets on top of the COVID outbreak, New South Wales has one of its own. Once again, the NSW government seems a tad slow at getting on to it. Testing needs to improve and mask wearing indoors is only “strongly recommended”. Updates from New South Wales Health – https://health.nsw.gov.au Updated from Victoria – https://coronavirus.vic.gov.au The AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine will only be administered to Australians over the age of 60 now. However, those under 60 who have already had their first dose of the AZ shot can get their second. I swear we must pay politicians by the word. There were lots of them from Prime Ministers Scott Morrison (Australia) and Boris Johnson (United Kingdom) recently at the G7 meeting in England on the UK/Australia Free Trade agreement. Lots of words, not a whole lot of detail. Western Australian Premier pleads with federal government to let the Muragappan family return to their adopted home of Biloela in Queensland. A McDonald's data breach, those affected are not “lovin' that”. Leadership rumbles within the Liberal and National Parties in Victoria and Federally. If after seeing the Friendly Jordies YouTube video entitled, “arrested” which saw (Friendly Jordies) Jordan Shanks' 21-year-old producer, Kristo Langker arrested on stalking charges and find yourself as angry and disappointed as me, do consider if you can, donating to the fighting fund at www.friendlyjordies.com I end this edition on a cocoa infused high.
