The House of Representatives Health Committee will hold the first public hearing on Wednesday 12 October 2022 for its inquiry into long COVID and repeated COVID infections.
The Chair of the Committee, Dr Mike Freelander MP, said: 'The hearing will be an opportunity for the Committee to hear from hospitals about their experience supporting patients with long COVID and/or repeated COVID infections, and the impact of long COVID and/or repeated COVID infections on Australia's overall health system.'
'The Committee is also looking forward to hearing from research organisations about research into long COVID and repeated COVID infections, including around the prevalence of these conditions, potential causes, and groups that may be particularly at-risk.'
The Committee intends to hold more public hearings in due course and interested parties are encouraged to make a submission to this inquiry by 18 November 2022.
