Australia’s peak rural medical bodies have warned rural Australians that, while most of the recent COVID-19 cases have been in metropolitan areas, there is significant potential for new cases to present in rural communities in the coming weeks. Both ACRRM and The Rural Doctors Association of Australia (RDAA) have urged those living in, and travelling through, rural communities to ensure they don’t drop the ball on COVID-19 and are being COVID safe at all times.
