Do You Need a Q Fever Vaccination?⁣
⁣
If your work involves being around animals, farming environments, or dusty outdoor areas, you may be at risk of Q Fever — a 𝐛𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐢𝐧𝐟𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 carried by livestock such as cattle, sheep, and goats.⁣
⁣
𝐘𝐨𝐮 𝐦𝐚𝐲 𝐧𝐞𝐞𝐝 𝐚 𝐐 𝐅𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐯𝐚𝐜𝐜𝐢𝐧𝐞 𝐢𝐟 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤 𝐢𝐧 𝐨𝐫 𝐚𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝:⁣
• Farms, cattle stations, dairies or livestock sheds⁣
• Abattoirs, meat processing or knackeries⁣
• Animal transport, shearing or wool handling⁣
• Veterinary clinics or animal handling roles⁣
• Wildlife parks or animal research facilities⁣
• Jobs that involve regular exposure to dust, soil, or animal waste⁣
⁣
𝐒𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐬 𝐅𝐢𝐫𝐬𝐭⁣
Before vaccination, you’ll need a simple pre-screening process (skin test and blood test) to check your immunity.⁣
This ensures the vaccine is safe and effective for you.⁣

Sugar🎵Yes please🎵? — but let’s be label smart. 👀

This Sugar Awareness Week (17–23 November), we’re reminding our community to take a closer look at what’s really inside our everyday foods.

Sometimes even products labelled “𝐧𝐨 𝐚𝐝𝐝𝐞𝐝 𝐬𝐮𝐠𝐚𝐫” or “𝐦𝐚𝐝𝐞 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐚𝐥 𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐫𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬” can still contain free sugars — the kind added during processing, or naturally found in 𝘴𝘺𝘳𝘶𝘱𝘴, 𝘩𝘰𝘯𝘦𝘺, 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘧𝘳𝘶𝘪𝘵 𝘫𝘶𝘪𝘤𝘦 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘤𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘳𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘴.

💙 𝐒𝐦𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐩𝐬 𝐦𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐚 𝐛𝐢𝐠 𝐝𝐢𝐟𝐟𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞:
✅ Check the 𝐍𝐮𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐈𝐧𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐏𝐚𝐧𝐞𝐥 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐈𝐧𝐠𝐫𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬 𝐋𝐢𝐬𝐭
✅ Watch out for words like 𝐬𝐲𝐫𝐮𝐩, 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐜𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞, 𝐨𝐫 𝐞𝐱𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐭
✅ Balance sweet choices with 𝐰𝐡𝐨𝐥𝐞 𝐟𝐨𝐨𝐝𝐬, 𝐟𝐢𝐛𝐫𝐞, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐰𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐫

It’s not about cutting out sugar completely — it’s about being aware, making informed choices, and looking beyond the label.

𝐓𝐨𝐝𝐚𝐲 𝐢𝐬 𝐖𝐨𝐫𝐥𝐝 𝐃𝐢𝐚𝐛𝐞𝐭𝐞𝐬 𝐃𝐚𝐲, and it’s a reminder that many people in our community are affected by diabetes — whether they’re newly diagnosed, supporting a family member, or just wanting to learn more.

We’re here for our community 💙

Heart disease remains the leading cause of death for Australian men — yet so much of it can be prevented with a few simple habits:

🩺 Getting regular blood pressure and cholesterol checks
🚶 Moving your body each day (even a walk around the block helps)
