Re RN Breakfast on tourism collapsing in FNQ. I fear for the long term health of business owners. I live in Sydney, 2 new cases yesterday. Cancelled a FNQ trip when Anna closed the border, AGAIN. As Fiona Stanley said recently it is not health or economy, the 2 are inter-related

Great study on such an important issue. I remember similar research done decades ago. Sounds like health in this industry has got worse not better. We need action now. If there is anymore research it needs to be implementation science.

Fantastic example showing academia can move quickly to generate timely, relevant and useful new knowledge. Congrats Alex and team

Agree! The panel, considered researchers were becoming aware of the need to consider implementation (ideally early) and required industry and community relationships to do so. Business and governments slower to value long term relationships with academia Gabriele Bammer

Quite moved by episode 2 Annabel Crabb. This is shaping up to be an important account at an important time of an important issue. I doubt anyone could lead it better than you
