Allowing a terminal [human] patient to be with their pet(s) in their dying days/hours is an act of true human decency and compassion. And really should just be permitted, as a rule, in palliative care wards. ❤️❤️❤️

As lockdowns continue across Australia and the world, residents in Northern NSW, Australia, are facing a second disease outbreak - Parvo - killing their puppies. Please ensure your dogs/pups are up to date with their vaccines. #puppy #MakeParvoHistory pawsforapurpose.org/media-ce…

Research projects are on hold due to COVID-19. Extraordinary times. Question is though, will universities step-up and support #HDR and #PhD students? Undergrad grades are being 'weighted' to recognise the disruption, how will HDR candidates be supported?
