We also need to raise awareness and change attitudes,” Professor Gerber said. “Some people might think that now same-sex couples can marry, there is no longer any need for a National Coming Out Day. But young LGBTIQ people today continue to suffer significant mental health problems because of the discrimination and vilification they still experience. Sometimes this is even sanctioned by law, for example, in religious schools.” “COVID-19 makes National Coming Out Day more important than ever. Connection to community and peer support have been found to have an important protective effect for LGBTIQ people, who are at higher risk of suicide and self-harm. Restrictions and lockdowns, which are necessary public health measures, increase the isolation of LGBTIQ people, sometimes in homes with family members who are not accepting of their sexual orientation or gender identity.” “There is a lot more Australia can do to increase respect for LGBTIQ people, including more protection for children in same-sex families, allowing donor siblings to find and [...]

Penington Institute Deputy CEO Stephen McNally talks about the key findings of Australia’s Annual Overdose Report 2021 which was released today. The key findings of the report were: 2,227 Australians died of overdose in 2019 – three-quarters (1,644) of which were unintentional. Overdose deaths have increased by 25% in a decade (from 2009 to 2019) Opioids were detected in 882 unintentional overdose deaths in 2019, while benzodiazepines (sedatives) were detected in 582 unintentional overdose deaths and stimulants (e.g. ice) were found in 470 such deaths. For Australians in their 30s, overdose was the second most common cause of death in 2019 behind only suicide, while for Australians in their 20s, overdose was the third-leading cause of death behind suicide and land transport accidents. There were 456 drug-induced suicides in 2019 (a 33% increase since 2009). One-third of drug-induced suicides are people aged over 60. Overdose deaths cost the Australian economy approximately $15.5 billion a year.

Better Access Australia is called on federal politicans to update Australia’s newborn screening program, with chair Felicity McNeill PSM saying the program was last updated almost 25 years ago. “Australia’s newborn screening program remains stuck in the 1980s, with no new conditions added to the national program for three decades, which means doctors are often unable to take advantage of medical breakthroughs to save tiny lives,” she said. “I urge Federal politicians to imagine they are a parent finding out that their baby has a rare disease months or years down the track, having missed out on diagnosis and life-saving treatment shortly after birth. “Time to diagnosis matters.
