Today in an ABC News Ticker it was stated as follows:
"One third of 'disease burden' suffered by indigenous Australians 'preventable'.
A serious worry, but at this stage I have no more detail. Is it funding? Is it delivery of the relevant medical services? Is it a problem that many indigenous Australians do not present to receive the medical services available? Is it a lifestyle matter that results in the onset of these diseases?
Is it a combination of all or some of the above?
I'll update this post when and if I can find more detail.
Whatever it is I hope that it can be addressed and quickly.
