Developing Medical Countermeasures for Pandemic Preparedness

Season 2 · Episode 88

Thursday, December 10, 2020 • Duration 24:48

While Australia is getting on top of COVID-19 and Britain begins vaccinating frontline healthcare workers, the virus is still raging in the US, Europe, and many parts of the world. It all underscores the critical importance of ongoing pandemic preparedness – for policy makers, industry and the community. To hear more about Australia’s efforts, we meet Dr Felicia Pradera who leads the DMTC Medical Countermeasures (MCM) program, which involves harnessing Australia’s capabilities to develop leading-edge, advanced technologies and to direct and deploy skills into activities that support Australian defence, health and national security outcomes. Medical Countermeasures include vaccines, therapeutics and diagnostics for the protection of military and civilian personnel against Chemical, Biological and Radiological threats, emerging infectious diseases and pandemics. They have just launched the National Health Security Resilience Assessment (open until 31 May 2021) to evaluate Australia’s research, product development and manufacturing capability in six priority areas - MCM, Medical Devices, PPE, Modelling and Simulation, Hazard Management and Sensing Systems. Find out why they need input from the MTP sector to help provide a national picture of Australia’s capability and capacity in the health security ecosystem.

World Antimicrobial Awareness Week: OUTBREAK Report On Superbugs

Season 2 · Episode 85

Friday, November 20, 2020 • Duration 30:44

Happy bonus episode listeners! To mark World Antimicrobial Awareness Week, the MTPConnect podcast team caught up with OUTBREAK Managing Director & Co-founder Associate Professor Branwen Morgan from the University of Technology Sydney and Distinguished Professor Antoine van Oijen, who is OUTBREAK’s Deputy Managing Director and Director of Health Programs from the University of Wollongong, to talk about their new economic report on the impact of antimicrobial resistance in Australia released this week which shines a light on the multi-million dollar cost of drug-resistant infections and connects the overuse and misuse of antibiotics to the health and economic impact of a single disease. OUTBREAK is a national consortium whose analysis used big data and Artificial Intelligence to highlight how urinary tract infections (UTIs) are becoming more persistent and harder to treat, resulting in more people being admitted to hospital where they require longer stays and more costly medicines. Each year UTIs alone lead to 2.5 million GP appointments, 100K emergency visits and 75K hospital stays!. OUTBREAK is a member of MTPConnect’s AAMRNet, Australia’s first Antimicrobial Resistance Network launched in October 2020. The report is available to download at OUTBREAK Project’s website: https://outbreakproject.com.au/antimicrobial-resistance-publications/utis-economic-report/.
