Scaling back of Metro North EOC.<\/strong><\/p>\nToday, we literally halved the size of our Metro North Emergency Operations Centre. This downscale is due to the slow in the number of positive COVID-19 cases across Metro North and the current state of our preparedness.<\/p>\n
For those of us who remain in the EOC, there is still plenty of work to be done and we continue to work to refine our preparedness, reporting and transparency. We are fully prepared to flex up back to full capacity should the demand arise.<\/p>\n
I know this is brief, but considering the amount of information, news and media we have all been consuming on COVID-19, I think we should consider ‘small\u2019 news is good news!<\/p>\n
Thank you for your continued work and commitment to our COVID-19 response.<\/p>\n
Kind regards,
\nDr Liz Rushbrook
