COVID-19 Health System Response Strategy

The Hon. I. PNEVMATIKOS (14:56): My question is to the Minister for Health and Wellbeing regarding health, but I seek leave to make a brief explanation before asking that question.

Leave granted.

The Hon. I. PNEVMATIKOS: The government's COVID strategy document released yesterday states, and I quote:

…there will be a number of identified, self-nominated Respiratory-Ready GP Clinics that can maintain higher levels of infection prevention and control…measures to reduce the risk of infection transmission between patients and staff.

My questions to the minister are:

1. Where exactly will the respiratory-ready clinics be?

2. Where can South Australians find a list of respiratory-ready GP clinics, or will they have to call the minister's office where they will take the question on notice like the minister does in this chamber?

The Hon. S.G. WADE (Minister for Health and Wellbeing) (14:57): My understanding is the commonwealth already publishes their respiratory clinics on their website and I am sure that when SA Health identifies their respiratory clinics in accordance with that document, they will also be put on the website.
