Women on the Line 3CR Community Radio

It’s a strange time at the moment, a time to stick together, while doing our best to physically stay apart.

This week on the program we speak with epidemiologist Dr Meru Sheel based at the Australian National University(link is external) about the public health implications of COVID-19 and the best things we can be doing to work towards solidarity in community and global health at this time.

We also hear from Sally McManus, Secretary of the Australian Council of Trade Unions, on the impact of the pandemic on casual workers and unemployed people, and the push to support those in insecure work.
