1
00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:04,360
Speaker 1: Dumb mission with Jonesy and Amanda, Well, what are the chances?

2
00:00:04,400 --> 00:00:07,000
Speaker 1: Just as we're heading into school holidays, there's been a

3
00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:11,240
Speaker 1: massive turnaround with positive COVID cases forcing various restrictions around

4
00:00:11,240 --> 00:00:11,600
Speaker 1: the nation.

5
00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:13,200
Speaker 2: It's a scary time again.

6
00:00:13,280 --> 00:00:16,240
Speaker 1: We welcome our doctor for the Australian Digital Health Agency,

7
00:00:16,239 --> 00:00:17,200
Speaker 1: Doctor Andrew Rochford.

8
00:00:17,239 --> 00:00:19,880
Speaker 3: Good morning scorn a Man, Morning Jonesy.

9
00:00:19,960 --> 00:00:22,640
Speaker 4: Hello doctor Andrew. First question, I'd like to ask, off

10
00:00:22,640 --> 00:00:24,200
Speaker 4: the get go, how do I know I've got a

11
00:00:24,200 --> 00:00:24,800
Speaker 4: blood clot?

12
00:00:24,880 --> 00:00:27,280
Speaker 2: Be prepared when you're answering this, Jones is a hypochondria.

13
00:00:27,400 --> 00:00:29,960
Speaker 4: I'm just saying that you all the stories are blood

14
00:00:29,960 --> 00:00:31,960
Speaker 4: club blood clot. How do I actually know I've got one?

15
00:00:33,120 --> 00:00:36,240
Speaker 3: Absolutely, He's a very very reasonable and a fair question.

16
00:00:36,600 --> 00:00:38,720
Speaker 3: I mean, obviously there's two different types of blood clots.

17
00:00:38,760 --> 00:00:41,720
Speaker 3: I'm assuming we're talking about the one associated with the vaccine.

18
00:00:42,920 --> 00:00:45,560
Speaker 3: And in these circumstances, people are people that have had

19
00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:49,599
Speaker 3: the blood clot. They had symptoms like severe or persistent headache,

20
00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:53,479
Speaker 3: they might have sort of nagging, ongoing gut pain, guest pain,

21
00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:59,200
Speaker 3: shortness of breath. Sometimes there isn't it unusual bruising a

22
00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:01,400
Speaker 3: whole series of different symptoms and now the case has

23
00:01:01,680 --> 00:01:05,000
Speaker 3: it's been quite vague symptoms, so it is difficult to know,

24
00:01:05,840 --> 00:01:08,200
Speaker 3: but it's something that is if one of those symptoms

25
00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:10,080
Speaker 3: has occurred, you know, within a short period of time

26
00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:13,000
Speaker 3: after having the vaccine, you know something you should be

27
00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:14,560
Speaker 3: talking to your doctor about it. But you know that's

28
00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:17,360
Speaker 3: that's my standard advice on most things that are concerning

29
00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:19,119
Speaker 3: you and that are persistent.

30
00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:21,160
Speaker 4: And I like how you take my calls at one

31
00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:21,679
Speaker 4: in the morning.

32
00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:26,120
Speaker 2: I've got this, well, Brendan, it's a hangover.

33
00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:29,280
Speaker 3: I'm here. I'm here for you.

34
00:01:29,319 --> 00:01:33,039
Speaker 1: With these the spike again in cases, is this because

35
00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:35,039
Speaker 1: we're heading into the colder months? Does that seem an

36
00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:36,280
Speaker 1: inevitability somehow?

37
00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:41,679
Speaker 3: Weoll potentially. I think the logic there is based around

38
00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:43,559
Speaker 3: the fact that durity the colder months, we do see

39
00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:47,360
Speaker 3: a rising in the transmission of other types of respiratory viruses,

40
00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:50,360
Speaker 3: and the coronavirus is at the spiratory virus. The reason

41
00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:52,200
Speaker 3: for that is a few different things. We do know.

42
00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:54,640
Speaker 3: These viruses tend to laugh a little bit longer when

43
00:01:54,640 --> 00:01:58,320
Speaker 3: it's colder weather. They don't like that warm uv light

44
00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:00,720
Speaker 3: and direct sunlight, so when there's left they tend to

45
00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:03,760
Speaker 3: survive a bit longer. On surfaces, we spend more time

46
00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:07,360
Speaker 3: closer together, So what that means is that we're more

47
00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:11,560
Speaker 3: likely to spread them around and ultimately also during the

48
00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:14,639
Speaker 3: really cold weather, our immune system bits and pieces of

49
00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:17,320
Speaker 3: our immune system, like the small fine hairs in your

50
00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:20,040
Speaker 3: nose and throat, to help you move out bits and

51
00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:22,160
Speaker 3: pieces they tend to work as well. So that's the

52
00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:25,960
Speaker 3: reason why we do see it with respiracy viruses over winter.

53
00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:29,160
Speaker 3: Whether that's actually going to occur. With the coronavirus, there

54
00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:32,080
Speaker 3: was some evens the cold cold combs doesn't actually change

55
00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:35,600
Speaker 3: it because when you look at places like India you

56
00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:38,320
Speaker 3: know which is warm time, you know that it didn't

57
00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:40,799
Speaker 3: slow down the movement through through India as well as

58
00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:42,560
Speaker 3: other parts of the world that are very warm.

59
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:45,440
Speaker 4: I wish I had small fine hairs in my nose.

60
00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:47,480
Speaker 4: You've got a big, longer lifet bush in there. You

61
00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:49,720
Speaker 4: should see it.

62
00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:51,480
Speaker 2: Piano white has.

63
00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:52,640
Speaker 3: Has its benefits.

64
00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:56,639
Speaker 2: Things are negative, so maybe you shouldn't pull them out

65
00:02:56,639 --> 00:02:57,120
Speaker 2: in front.

66
00:02:56,960 --> 00:02:58,680
Speaker 4: Of the friends, and that's a good thing. So have

67
00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:00,320
Speaker 4: you got a big bush in your nose, It's going

68
00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:01,920
Speaker 4: to stop more stuff getting in there.

69
00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:05,440
Speaker 3: There's very fine I'm talking more about it in the

70
00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:08,040
Speaker 3: back of your nose and your throw. Yet there's very

71
00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:11,120
Speaker 3: fine hands there and they help move some of that

72
00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:15,160
Speaker 3: muck up towards that's why you end up with obviously

73
00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:17,440
Speaker 3: the gunk in your nose or the back of your throat.

74
00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:20,960
Speaker 4: Also with Scott Morrison, Prime Minister in quarantine, so he

75
00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:23,960
Speaker 4: would be fully vaccinated. Now, so what's the point of

76
00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:26,480
Speaker 4: vaccines if you've still got a quarantine.

77
00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:30,160
Speaker 3: Well, so the challenge with the vaccine is the people

78
00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:32,440
Speaker 3: who are vaccinated, and the whole point of vaccine is to

79
00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:36,800
Speaker 3: reduce death, ray hospitalization, people getting very sick. Really good

80
00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:40,240
Speaker 3: evidence to show the vaccines do that. However, it doesn't

81
00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:43,080
Speaker 3: stop you. It doesn't mean you cannot patch the virus,

82
00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:46,360
Speaker 3: and it doesn't mean you cannot spread or shed the virus.

83
00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:48,640
Speaker 3: So when you're in a population of people, it still

84
00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:52,680
Speaker 3: has a large percentage unvaccinated, and you'll vaccinate, you might

85
00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:55,120
Speaker 3: not get sick, but you've still got the ability to

86
00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:57,680
Speaker 3: shed that virus unfortunately, and spread to other people. So

87
00:03:57,920 --> 00:03:59,880
Speaker 3: the key here is that so we can all get

88
00:03:59,880 --> 00:04:01,520
Speaker 3: on with what we're doing, we all need to get

89
00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:03,600
Speaker 3: to a point where we've got that hurt of any

90
00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:07,120
Speaker 3: the majority of us have vaccinated, and then it won't.

91
00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:08,800
Speaker 3: It would be a very different story.

92
00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:12,880
Speaker 2: There we go get vaccinated. There's the message, doctor Andrew,

93
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:13,960
Speaker 2: thank you for joining us again.

00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:31,440
Speaker 3: and I can tell you right now we are going

101
00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:32,920
Speaker 3: to need it. If we think we're just going to

102
00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:35,239
Speaker 3: get this vaccine once and it's not going to happen again,

103
00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:37,000
Speaker 3: it's going to be one of those going to have

104
00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:39,320
Speaker 3: to take track off. So in my health record, you

105

Speaker 3: a lot easier because it will come a time where

109
00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:50,839
Speaker 3: we need to start proving that we've had these vaccines,

110
00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:53,280
Speaker 3: and that's that's where all that information is going to exist.

111
00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:55,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, and your handwriting is terrible, so it's a good thing.
