BACKGROUND
The Financial Review, 18 September 2022, excerpt:
The new national weekly COVID-19 reporting regime has been heavily criticised, with claims it is a mishmash of different measures, definitions and timings, with some jurisdictions not reporting testing and with the new federal report replaced by a “useless” PowerPoint document.
INDaily, 23 September 2022, excerpt:
The change from daily to weekly data releases has been widely criticised within the health sector.
State figures released last Friday differed starkly to the federal data because of different start and end dates for counting.
Epidemiologist Adrian Esterman said he agreed with colleagues who described the new format for the data dump as “useless”.
Another scientist described it as a “dog’s breakfast”.
