Around 2.8 million (11%) people in Australia were estimated to be living with asthma in 2022.

It accounted for 2.5% of total disease burden and 35% of the total burden of disease for all respiratory conditions in 2023.

In 2020–21, an estimated $851.7 million was spent on the treatment and management of asthma, representing 0.6% of total health system expenditure and 19% of expenditure for all respiratory conditions.

It is also the leading cause of total burden in children aged 1–9 years and disproportionately affects Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.

National Stroke Week 2024 encourages the community to know the F.A.S.T. (Face, Arms, Speech and Time) signs of stroke so that they can save a life in the event of a loved one experiencing a stroke.

Stroke Foundation recommends the F.A.S.T. test as an easy way to remember the most common signs of stroke. Using the F.A.S.T. test involves asking these simple questions:

Face Check their face. Has their mouth drooped?
Arms Can they lift both arms?
Speech Is their speech slurred? Do they understand you?
Time Is critical. If you see any of these signs call 000 straight away.
A stroke is always a medical emergency. Keep looking at your mum, dad, love and mates, it could save their life.

“World Immunisation Week – celebrated every year in the last week of April – aims to promote the use of vaccines to protect people of all ages against disease. Immunisation saves millions of lives every year and is widely recognised as one of the world’s most successful health interventions. Yet, there are still nearly 20 million children in the world today who are not getting the vaccines they need, and many miss out on vital vaccines during adolescence, adulthood and into old age.”
