Health minister reveals ‘large supply’ on its way

A drug that is being touted by some as the best treatment available for COVID-19 will soon be available in large supply in Australia.

“I have just come off a call with a supplier and I am confident we will have a significant supply of hydroxychloroquine if doctor wish to use them with patients who are in hospital,” Minister for Health Greg Hunt told A Current Affair.COVID-19 treatment drug hydroxychloroquine soon to be supplied in Australia

The advice Mr Hunt and the government have received is that experts are “cautiously hopeful” hydroxychloroquine can have an impact.

The minister pointed to “promising trials” being conducted with the drug overseas and said the new supply of the drug to Australia will allow us to expand on such trials.

Hydroxychloroquine, which has garnered international attention as a possible treatment for the virus, will be available to doctors to treat patients already in hospital, if medical staff believe it will help, Mr Hunt said.

The minister also said Australia is starting to see the payoff of new measures.

“We are doing better than our initial modelling,” the minister said.

Mr Hunt called Australia’s expectation that measures will last for about six months “conservative”.COVID-19 treatment drug hydroxychloroquine soon to be supplied in Australia

Despite that, the minister flatly declined to predict when our country’s borders will reopen.

“It will depend what happens in other countries,” he said

“What occurs in those countries, we’re not in control of.”

Some local pharmacies talked about fears related to the COVID-19 outbreak about medicine supply concerns, stockpiling, profit losses, worker safety concerns, and what the future holds. Also talked about medicine supplies related to hydroxychloroquine, chloroquine (both of which serve those who have autoimmune disorders like lupus and HIV and help those with rheumatoi (AP/AAP)

Finally, the minister urged all Australians to get their seasonal flu vaccine.

“It doesn’t help with coronavirus,” he said. But Mr Hunt pointed out that thousands of lives are also lost each year to influenza, with elderly people and children under six particularly susceptible.

“We’d like to see as many Australians as possible [vaccinated].”
