Why is self-determination in health important and how can Voice to Parliament help? Every day, organisations like Victorian Aboriginal Community Controlled Health Organisation Inc see the outcomes achieved when Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people are involved in making decisions about their health. "Self determination means we make decisions and form health strategies we know work for us. It will enable us to deliver care we know fully meets the needs of our peoples. Holistic care - that wraps around patients and their families, and ensures they are heard, they are seen, and they feel valued." Watch the full recording of our recent Voice Panel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AqCv9iOSPXs Cancer Council Victoria
"We have the most to gain from a lung cancer screening program, but we have the most to lose if we don't get it right."

For people with weakened immune systems, such as those with blood cancers or on active #cancer treatment, protection against #COVID19 is vital. To improve immunity, an extra primary dose of vaccine is recommended as well as a booster. That means FOUR jabs to be fully vaxxed for people who are severely immunocompromised.
