The Informer

COVID-19 Updates for people living with HIV, how do you keep essential services going, and more

News & Politics

Tonight we have COVID-19 updates for the LGBTI community. We have updates from the Federal Government, State Government and some specialist advice for people living with HIV. We talk to State Deputy Opposition Leader Georgie Crozier about community responses to the pandemic. What do public utilities do to keep themselves running in an emergency? We talk to a utility in the United States about what they’re doing. And we take a tour of a garden.

To serve our community during the pandemic emergency, we’re experimenting with running The Informer as The Informer Daily, a 30 minute current affairs update. It is available here and on your radio at 6pm Melbourne time each day, Monday through Friday. Your feedback is very welcome: theinformer@joy.org.au
