In episode two we ask the big questions about COVID-19, including what it is, how it’s spreading and what happens if you test positive.

Our guests are Professor Tania Sorrell, Director of Infectious Disease Services, Westmead, and Director of the Marie Bashir Institute for Infectious Diseases and Biosecurity, University of Sydney; and Dr Shopna Bag, Director of the Public Health Unit at Western Sydney Local Health District.

Professor Sorrell and Dr Bag share their expert advice on how to protect yourself and your loved ones, and the latest knowledge from around the world.

Welcome to our new podcast Western Sydney Health Check, the only place to hear from leading experts on healthcare-related issues from five hospitals and a range of health services in Western Sydney.

In episode one we are joined by our chief executive Graeme Loy as he discusses COVID-19 and what our district is doing to prepare for the pandemic.
