What Is The Medical Advice For Keeping Children Safe This Winter?

At the beginning of the pandemic, parents were comforted by the knowledge that children were the least likely to catch Covid, and if they did, symptoms wouldn’t be too severe. 

Now, however, over two years later, Aussie kids are falling like flies. 

So what do parents need to be aware of amidst the surge in cases and heading into the flu season?  

Dr Norman Swan, co-host of the Coronacast podcast and author of So You Think You Know What’s Good for You?, has this week joined Shevonne Hunt on Feed Play Love to breakdown exactly what you need to know, including the importance of healthy ventilation in schools, and whether kids should get both the flu and Covid vaccine.
