COVID-19 UPDATE - NOVAVAX The TGA has provisionally approved the use of the Novavax COVID-19 vaccine for use in Australia. It will now go to ATAGI for approval and we anticipate the first shipments of the vaccines to arrive over the coming weeks. Australia has secured 51 million doses of the Novavax COVID-19 vaccine. As we have done throughout the pandemic, we will act on medical advice to ensure all those who wish to receive a vaccine will have the opportunity to do so, wherever they are across Australia.
Abuse is abuse – it doesn’t matter what your status, position or gender is. Today the Select Committee on Social Media and Online Safey heard from Erin Molan about her experience of online trolling and abuse. Her story and insights echoed much of the evidence that we have heard to date. Social media can too often be a place where the anonymous can bully, harass and ruin lives without consequence. We would not accept these faceless attacks anywhere else, and we must not stand for it online.
Stay safe Coasties! Enjoy your Sunday - it looks like a good day for reading or a movie!

LUCY IN THE MEDIA
It is the dreams, the aspirations and the ambitions of people living in Robertson that have become my own.
My commitment to them is to fight, with every fibre of my being, for a future with more choice and where more opportunities abound. I look forward to the day when Coasties no longer have leave for Sydney or Newcastle or anywhere else in the world to find the sort of economic, career, educational or other advancement opportunities they may want, because they will find them here: in Gosford, in Woy Woy, in West Gosford, in Erina and in Somersby.
