Births Deaths & Marriages Victoria Alex Berenson Reports Deaths in the Australian state of Victoria, where 95 percent of adults have received Covid vaccines and most are boosted with mRNA shots, soared to their highest level in at least 13 years in August - far above the five-year average. Victoria offers almost unique data: near-real-time reporting on death trends in millions of people who are heavily vaccinated but had little exposure to Covid before being jabbed. Victoria registered 4,896 deaths from all causes in August, 27 percent above the monthly average of the previous five Augusts. Mortality in Australia typically peaks June through August, the Southern Hemisphere's winter, but the figure is only the latest in a disturbing trend. So far in 2022, Victoria has registered 32,533 deaths, 20 percent above its average for the same eight-month period from 2017 through 2021. Victoria has had more than 4000 deaths in five months since February; it crossed that threshold only in seven months in the previous 12 years. In general, deaths in Victoria have typically fallen in a very narrow band. In each year from 2017 to 2021, the state reported between 26,350 and 27,800 deaths for the eight months from January to August. Much of this year's increase is due to Covid-related deaths. Like the rest of Australia, Victoria has faced a wave of Covid infections and deaths in 2022, even though 70 percent of its adults and nearly 90 percent of people over 60 are not just vaccinated but boosted. More than two-thirds of Victoria's Covid deaths have occurred in 2022 - the equivalent of about 200,000 deaths in the United States - even though Omicron is viewed as significantly milder than earlier variants. At the same time, deaths from other causes are up substantially too, and rising caseloads from both Covid and other illnesses have put heavy pressure on the state's hospital system. Such a high death rate in such a highly vaccinated population raises a lot of question, at least in my mind. No 1 is: What is this vaccine actually doing to our immune systems? This is just my opinion.

The largest survey of Australia's healthcare workers has highlighted the sharp rise in mental health symptoms experienced by doctors and health care workers around the country throughout the COVID-19 pandemic. The Australian Frontline Healthcare Workers Study was distributed nationally in September last year at the height of Victoria's COVID-19 second wave amid nearly four months of strict lockdown, receiving record responses. Over eight weeks close to 10,0000 healthcare workers participated in the survey speaking of burnout, feeling unsafe at work, and frustration with misplaced funding and inadequate quick fixes. Detailed stories from senior clinicians, junior doctors, allied health workers and hospital administrators have revealed the magnitude of mental health symptoms experienced throughout the crisis: More than half of survey respondents had depression, while 70% of participants experienced emotional exhaustion and 41% experienced post traumatic stress disorder as measured on validated psychological scales. In this podcast lead investigators respiratory physician Associate Professor Natasha Smallwood and health sociologist Professor Karen Willis talk to the limbic about the key findings from their analysis and what Australia's healthcare workers say about how inevitable future crises should be handled to protect the mental health of frontline workers.

There's excitement in the air with Odie heading back to school and Em has found herself wistfully thinking of when she was 13, back then she obsessing over Fred Savage from the TV Show ‘The Wonder Years', and just wanting to be around her teeny tween friends, so she's impressed with how well Odie has dealt with lockdown. Then there's time to reflect on Em's recent appearance on the podcast of her old radio boss Craig, they haven't talked in a really long time and Em wasn't even keen on the idea initially, but then she decided to pull on her big girl pants and have at it. So Em finally got to vent a bunch of negative feelings and as a result it actually turned into a very healing experience. Then Michael returns to help Em sort through the latest developments around Victoria's Covid restrictions, the weekend saw the Government opting for a cautious pausing of restriction lifting in Victoria while they wait for more results. There's a brand new Sasha Baron Cohen movie called ‘Borat Subsequent Moviefilm' that's got social media worked up into a frenzy and Em has a LOT to say about that. Also across the weekend Em and Michael found time to check out some of the latest episodes of the Netflix series ‘My Next Guest Needs No Introduction with David Letterman'. His new season of guests includes Kim Kardashian West, Robert Downey Jr., Dave Chapelle and the always amazing Lizzo so there's LOTS to chat about, plus there's also Adele's appearance on ‘Saturday Night Live' to work through too. So this episode of Emsolation is really a pop culture bonanza with a sprinkling of reminiscing and vengeful podcast venting thrown in, so situation normal really.

New Zealand has postponed their national election because of a COVID-19 cluster which highlights their different approach to the pandemic. They are going for elimination, while Australia is pursuing suppression.     Their elimination strategy had been working well. After a national stage four six week lock down, restrictions were lifted and life seemed to return to normal until last week when the clean streak ended, and restrictions came back into play. So is New Zealand starting to pay a bigger price for the elimination strategy, and how different is their strategy to ours? Is elimination even a reality?   Professor Michael Baker is an epidemiologist on the New Zealand Health Ministry's COVID19 Technical Advisory Group and joins us to explain if New Zealand's elimination strategy is about to get a whole lot more difficult.   In today's news headlines: 99% of Victoria's Covid-19 cases are linked to hotel quarantine, while NSW government apologises for Ruby Princess crisis NZ Pushes Back Election Due To Covid Young Aussies are the target of the latest ad campaign around Covid-19 ad campaign.    Follow The Briefing Instagram: @thebriefingpodcast  Facebook: TheBriefingNewsAU Twitter: @TheBriefingAU  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
