1
00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:03,040
Speaker 1: Job mission with Jonesy and Amanda.

2
00:00:03,240 --> 00:00:04,880
Speaker 2: We haven't got up with our next guest for a while,

3
00:00:04,880 --> 00:00:06,560
Speaker 2: and he's not chatting to us. He's working as an

4
00:00:06,559 --> 00:00:10,399
Speaker 2: emergency doctor, very casual. Well, the country is slowly making

5
00:00:10,400 --> 00:00:13,080
Speaker 2: its way through the rollout of vaccines. He's here to

6
00:00:13,080 --> 00:00:15,720
Speaker 2: to tell us that there's technology to help us keep

7
00:00:15,800 --> 00:00:18,960
Speaker 2: track of our health updates. Doctor Andrew Rochford for the

8
00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:23,000
Speaker 2: Australian Digital Health Agency. It sounds so official. Good morning, hello.

9
00:00:24,040 --> 00:00:28,880
Speaker 1: Jonesy, Amanda. It has been far too long for your

10
00:00:28,920 --> 00:00:29,320
Speaker 1: check out.

11
00:00:29,640 --> 00:00:33,320
Speaker 2: I had my JAB on Monday, and it's funny because

12
00:00:33,320 --> 00:00:36,120
Speaker 2: you know, we have flu vaccines and I've had a

13
00:00:36,200 --> 00:00:38,200
Speaker 2: number of vaccines I was working with beyond two thousand,

14
00:00:38,240 --> 00:00:40,839
Speaker 2: having to go to exotic places. But everyone seems so

15
00:00:40,880 --> 00:00:43,720
Speaker 2: anxious about this and I've had I've got a sore

16
00:00:43,840 --> 00:00:46,120
Speaker 2: arm the site where the negele went in, but I've

17
00:00:46,159 --> 00:00:48,760
Speaker 2: got no other side effects. And I think that the

18
00:00:48,800 --> 00:00:52,000
Speaker 2: media is trying to media reports every story of every

19
00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:53,479
Speaker 2: side effect and people are spooked.

20
00:00:54,560 --> 00:00:57,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, well done, congratulations, good to hear. I've

21
00:00:57,920 --> 00:01:00,080
Speaker 1: had mine as well, and I look at you. I

22
00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:02,400
Speaker 1: think you're spot on there. I think the reality is

23
00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:05,760
Speaker 1: that if the media was to announce every time somebody

24
00:01:05,840 --> 00:01:08,440
Speaker 1: was vaccinated and it was successful, there wouldn't be much

25
00:01:08,760 --> 00:01:10,960
Speaker 1: room in the news for anything else to discuss, but

26
00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:14,839
Speaker 1: really kind of focused in on these very rare very

27
00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:17,840
Speaker 1: in the scheme of things side effects and poor outcomes,

28
00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:20,080
Speaker 1: and what that means is that we're all getting a

29
00:01:20,120 --> 00:01:23,360
Speaker 1: bit of a disproportionate idea of just how many times

30
00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:26,920
Speaker 1: it's happening, because it's not. It's still very rare. And

31
00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:30,240
Speaker 1: the number of people globally that have been vaccinated successfully

32
00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:32,720
Speaker 1: in countries like the UK and the US that doing

33
00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:36,319
Speaker 1: an exceptional job and moving now towards getting back to normality,

34
00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:38,039
Speaker 1: which is what we want to do. And if we

35
00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:40,080
Speaker 1: as a country can do the same things, you know,

36
00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:42,280
Speaker 1: we can hopefully go back to travel and doing those

37
00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:43,120
Speaker 1: things that we all love to do.

38
00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:45,640
Speaker 3: So I'm booked in for my next Monday, Andrew, and

39
00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:47,600
Speaker 3: I've got to go to a new doctor to do it.

40
00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:50,920
Speaker 3: So I'm filling out the new forms. Well, Amanda started

41
00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:52,680
Speaker 3: to fill out the forms for me. But can I

42
00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:54,960
Speaker 3: just ask you this. On the drinking question, they say

43
00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:58,880
Speaker 3: how many do you drink? If so, how much do

44
00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:01,640
Speaker 3: you drink? There was a just said heaps as a

45
00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:04,480
Speaker 3: doctor just on the side, How honest do I have

46
00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:06,920
Speaker 3: to be with this? Like I'm not olive read, I'm

47
00:02:06,920 --> 00:02:09,520
Speaker 3: not a raging alcoholic, but I like a drink on

48
00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:10,280
Speaker 3: the weekends.

49
00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:13,400
Speaker 1: Yeah. Look, you know between you and me and no

50
00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:18,240
Speaker 1: one else is listening. Joke, Most medical practitioners will will

51
00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:22,240
Speaker 1: add a contingency to whatever you say. Invariably we will.

52
00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:25,440
Speaker 1: We will add a little bit on top, so to

53
00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:28,919
Speaker 1: be honest, but invariably. You know, most people tend to

54
00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:31,960
Speaker 1: undersell how much they drink, so we tend to multiply

55
00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:35,440
Speaker 1: a little bit. But look, it's important, you know, it's

56
00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:38,600
Speaker 1: one of those things and you know people in I

57
00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:41,200
Speaker 1: mean with information, it's one of the most important things

58
00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:44,360
Speaker 1: in healthcare. What people don't understand is it's be honest.

59
00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:46,680
Speaker 1: It's better because if you are honest about how much

60
00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:48,920
Speaker 1: a drink, you know, that makes the decisions that are

61
00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:52,840
Speaker 1: made about your health easier and more accurate. So you know,

62
00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:55,000
Speaker 1: I just be honest, Thomas.

63
00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:55,840
Speaker 2: There's no judgment.

64
00:02:57,120 --> 00:02:58,560
Speaker 1: I mean there's judgment this Thorage.

65
00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:01,840
Speaker 3: This judgment. It's like on R B T when you

66
00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:03,959
Speaker 3: see those guys they pull up. Have you had any

67
00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:10,880
Speaker 3: drinks tonight, I just have a cup of tea just TV. Well, Andrew,
