1
00:00:00,480 --> 00:00:02,040
Speaker 1: Jonesy and Amanda in the morning.

2
00:00:03,160 --> 00:00:05,320
Speaker 2: W safam, the doctor is in the house.

3
00:00:16,239 --> 00:00:19,599
Speaker 3: It's a fitty good look. We're all keen to stay

4
00:00:19,640 --> 00:00:21,520
Speaker 3: on top of our health at the moment, mentally and

5
00:00:21,560 --> 00:00:24,880
Speaker 3: physically very important. Luckily, the new world of digital health

6
00:00:24,880 --> 00:00:27,479
Speaker 3: allows us to do that right here, right now, with

7
00:00:27,560 --> 00:00:30,560
Speaker 3: our check up with our resident doctor, doctor Andrew Rochford.

8
00:00:30,560 --> 00:00:33,720
Speaker 3: Good morning, Andrew, Good morning. Lots of people have been

9
00:00:33,760 --> 00:00:37,680
Speaker 3: saying that they've put on corona kilos, that sitting at

10
00:00:37,680 --> 00:00:41,159
Speaker 3: home and hibernating hasn't been good for the backside, but

11
00:00:41,200 --> 00:00:44,360
Speaker 3: that also means for health. I'm guessing. So now that

12
00:00:44,400 --> 00:00:46,519
Speaker 3: we're all being urged to head out a little bit,

13
00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:48,680
Speaker 3: are we having to drop all the kilos?

14
00:00:49,240 --> 00:00:49,440
Speaker 2: Yeah?

15
00:00:49,479 --> 00:00:51,600
Speaker 1: I think, I mean I think people went one of

16
00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:53,560
Speaker 1: the other two ways. So I went the way where

17
00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:55,560
Speaker 1: that all they've been doing is excise, or the other

18
00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:58,480
Speaker 1: way where they haven't done any which are only understandable.

19
00:00:58,960 --> 00:01:01,120
Speaker 1: I think it's been a scenario where it's been difficult

20
00:01:01,200 --> 00:01:03,960
Speaker 1: to stick with routines a lot of the time, closing

21
00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:08,119
Speaker 1: of gins, not being able to be outside, we tend

22
00:01:08,120 --> 00:01:09,920
Speaker 1: to eat a little bit more. We can get a

23
00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:13,360
Speaker 1: little bit concerned and mental health plays a role in that.

24
00:01:13,440 --> 00:01:15,920
Speaker 1: So we all need to give ourselves a break. Sure

25
00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:17,520
Speaker 1: we might have all thrown on a few more kilos,

26
00:01:17,560 --> 00:01:20,400
Speaker 1: but this winter is going to be tough because usually

27
00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:23,679
Speaker 1: in winter when we put the extra weight on, but

28
00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:25,120
Speaker 1: we need to get out and start moving it.

29
00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:29,679
Speaker 2: I've got a question in from Kjoxley on our Instagram page, Andrew,

30
00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:35,080
Speaker 2: why are my finger joints getting bigger on one hand? Yikes?

31
00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:41,320
Speaker 1: Wow, I'm not sure. There's a lot of different reasons potentially.

32
00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:44,360
Speaker 1: I'm assuming that they either look like they're getting bigger

33
00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:47,200
Speaker 1: or the rings might not be fitting anymore. Can if

34
00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:51,040
Speaker 1: it's on one side, sometimes it's to do with potentially circulation.

35
00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:53,360
Speaker 1: I don't think it's necessarily to do with weight gain.

36
00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:56,760
Speaker 1: I think the body unfortunately does decide where it puts weight,

37
00:01:56,800 --> 00:01:59,560
Speaker 1: but it doesn't necessarily put it into one hand versus

38
00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:03,440
Speaker 1: the other. So I think that might be potentially something

39
00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:04,640
Speaker 1: you need to see someone about.

40
00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:08,799
Speaker 3: What about this news we've been hearing from overseas about

41
00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:13,280
Speaker 3: illness for children that's been linked to coronavirus and it's

42
00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:16,280
Speaker 3: sort of described as that rare Kawasaki disease, And this

43
00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:18,959
Speaker 3: is something we've been seeing in kids in the States.

44
00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:20,600
Speaker 3: Should we be alarmed here.

45
00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:24,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's been coming for a little while now. They've

46
00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:28,520
Speaker 1: been hearing more and more cases about this Kawasaki like disease.

47
00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:30,720
Speaker 1: And just to quickly explain what that is, it's an

48
00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:33,840
Speaker 1: inflammatory condition that happens most commonly in kids under the

49
00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:37,760
Speaker 1: age of five. Sometimes we're not necessarily sure what triggers it,

50
00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:40,000
Speaker 1: but a lot of the time in the cases where

51
00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:43,880
Speaker 1: the child gets very sick, it attacks the blood vessels

52
00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:46,520
Speaker 1: of the heart. Now, in a lot of cases, the

53
00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:50,520
Speaker 1: majority of cases of Kawasaki child actually recovers. But it's

54
00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:52,359
Speaker 1: not a great condition. It's not a great disease. And

55
00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:57,160
Speaker 1: we've been seeing these Kawasaki like presentations of children more

56
00:02:57,200 --> 00:03:00,360
Speaker 1: and more cases, some in the UK where where it

57
00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:04,480
Speaker 1: potentially started, now in the US. I think there's a

58
00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:07,639
Speaker 1: lot of different scenarios when you have an entire globe

59
00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:10,799
Speaker 1: watching a disease and trying to come up with where,

60
00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:13,000
Speaker 1: where are all the problems? How do we need to

61
00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:16,200
Speaker 1: monitor this? So sometimes you do get an inflated view

62
00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:20,720
Speaker 1: of conditions like this, But I guess that for children,

63
00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:23,720
Speaker 1: they are still the least likely to have a poor

64
00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:28,280
Speaker 1: outcome from this. Disease, and this Kawasaki disease like condition

65
00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:31,840
Speaker 1: is still extremely rare with comparison to a lot of

66
00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:34,720
Speaker 1: other conditions that children get. So we should still be

67
00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:37,440
Speaker 1: doing all the things we're doing, and the researchers will

68
00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:39,400
Speaker 1: continue to try to figure out whether you know, it's

69
00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:40,440
Speaker 1: more of a problem than it is.

70
00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:42,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, because we don't have any of it here, do we.

71
00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:45,200
Speaker 1: No, we haven't had any cases of it. You hear,

72
00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:49,400
Speaker 1: we've had very few cases children actually getting unwealthyre, So yeah,

73
00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:52,200
Speaker 1: it's not here, and in the scheme of all the

74
00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:55,440
Speaker 1: cases on the planet, it's still a very small percentage.

75
00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:58,720
Speaker 1: But obviously when we start talking about these and we

76
00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:01,360
Speaker 1: hear more and more cases, tend to give us an

77
00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:03,440
Speaker 1: idea that there's more of it than there actually is.

78
00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:06,120
Speaker 1: And then because you know, it's not something we want

79
00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:08,800
Speaker 1: to see and be very fortunate that the children haven't

80
00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:12,040
Speaker 1: been as involved in this pandemic as potentially some others.

81
00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:14,800
Speaker 2: And also being optimistic with this as well, the people

82
00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:17,480
Speaker 2: that have got coronavirus that are an intensive care at

83
00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:19,320
Speaker 2: the moment in all the state of New South Wales.

84
00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:21,560
Speaker 2: It's under fifteen at the moment, isn't It's about fifty

85
00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:22,760
Speaker 2: to fourteen or fifteen people.

86
00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:26,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, which is really great. I think if wind the

87
00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:28,880
Speaker 1: clock back to when this was all starting and we

88
00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:31,080
Speaker 1: were all concerned what are we going to do, we

89
00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:33,480
Speaker 1: would never have predicted we'd find ourselves in this position

90
00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:37,120
Speaker 1: where we've done extremely well as a country. We've paid attention,

91
00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:41,200
Speaker 1: we've implemented great public health policy, and we've got ourselves

92
00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:43,720
Speaker 1: to a point where it is under control and we're

93
00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:45,880
Speaker 1: doing much better than we could ever have predicted. The

94
00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:48,240
Speaker 1: key now is to continue that. It's not to sort

95
00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:49,800
Speaker 1: of pat yourself on the back. So you've won the

96
00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:52,599
Speaker 1: gold medal. All right, let's move on. We need to

97
00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:55,839
Speaker 1: make sure that we understand the virus has disappeared, and

98
00:04:55,880 --> 00:04:57,479
Speaker 1: we just need to continue to do all the good

99
00:04:57,480 --> 00:04:59,640
Speaker 1: things we have. As we start to list these restrictions,

100
00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:00,440
Speaker 1: all good.

101
00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:02,839
Speaker 2: I just noticed that my knuckles on my left hand

102
00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:04,720
Speaker 2: are a little bit bigger than the ones on my

103
00:05:04,839 --> 00:05:05,279
Speaker 2: road to do.

104
00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:06,880
Speaker 3: With beer maybe.

105
00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:11,400
Speaker 1: Maybe? Well, obviously you're either left or right hand dominant,

106
00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:13,400
Speaker 1: so one hand is actually going to be bigger because

107
00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:15,120
Speaker 1: it has more muscles in it.

108
00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:16,560
Speaker 2: But that's my right one.

109
00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:20,200
Speaker 3: What are you doing with your left hand? Let's move on?

110
00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:23,479
Speaker 2: Doctor Andrew, it's always great to talk to you. For

111

Speaker 3: Thanks Andrew.

115

Speaker 1: Join the and Amanda in the Morning. One point seven
