Wastewater detects signs of antimicrobial resistance in aged care
A
new study analysing waste water samples from several aged care and retirement homes in Adelaide, has uncovered worrying signs of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in at least one facility. High levels of bacterial resistance against three common antibiotics – ceftazidime, cefepime and ciprofloxacin – were identified in one aged care residential home. A second facility recorded above average levels of antimicrobial resistance to gentamicin, putting residents’ health at risk. The listed antibiotics are used to treat a variety of bacterial infections, including pneumonia, gynaecological, urinary and respiratory tract infections, and those affecting bones and joints. University of South Australia microbiologist, Associate Professor Rietie Venter, who led the study, says AMR is a concerning trend in aged care facilities. Although the wastewater study was confined to three “Antimicrobial resistance is projected to lead to 300 million deaths worldwide by 2060, and aged care residents are among the most vulnerable due to frequent, inappropriate use of medicines.” sites and 300 residents, the findings suggest a much wider problem, and are a clear warning to aged care facilities to implement stricter policies when it comes to medication use. “As well as increasing death rates, AMR can lengthen illness recovery times, especially for immunocompromised people who make up a high proportion of people in aged care homes.” Accurately monitoring the misuse and overuse of antibiotics in residential aged care homes is challenging, hence the use of wastewater-based surveillance, believed to be a first for this sector. According to the Australian Commission on Safety and Quality in Health Care, general rates of antimicrobial resistance have not significantly changed in the past two years. However, there are exceptions to this, including
increasing resistance to ceftriaxone and fluoroquinolones. Both antibiotics are widely used in aged care settings, despite clinical guidelines recommending them as ‘last resort’ drugs. “The results of this study highlight the need for ongoing surveillance of residential aged care facilities when it comes to medication use,” Assoc Prof Venter says. “Given our ageing population, there is a crucial need to regularly monitor these facilities and mitigate the threat of AMR.”

Crime Stoppers Targets Organised Crime Crime Stoppers Victoria is urging the public to share what they know about the drug trade in a bid to tackle organised crime syndicates as part of its Na onal Illicit Drugs Campaign. The call for informa on comes as new wastewater data has Victorians topping the list for consump on of the dangerous super drug fentanyl. According to the Australian Criminal Intelligence Commission, regional Victoria ranked first na onally in consump on of heroin, and second in the consump on of deadly fentanyl and oxycodone. Melbourne ranked first in Australia for capital city consump on of heroin, ketamine and fentanyl. Fentanyl use is considered an epidemic in North America. It is a highly addic ve opioid up to 100 mes stronger than morphine – with just 2mg enough to cause a deadly overdose. The drug contributed to nearly 110,000 deaths in the USA last year alone and is o en mixed into cocaine and heroin by drug dealers to increase profit margins, leaving unsuspec ng drug users at an even higher risk of harm.

Crime Stoppers Victoria Chief Execu ve Stella Smith said organised crime syndicates who were distribu ng harmful drugs such as fentanyl had the poten al to devastate Victoria. “We’ve already seen the high harm that illicit drugs such as ice can have on our community, with fentanyl the latest drug to poten ally destroy the lives of individuals and families,” she said. “On an almost weekly basis we are seeing significant drug busts by authori es. This highlights the level outlaw motorcycle gangs and other organised crime groups are willing to go to as they a empt to harm Victorians through their greed of making a profit. “These drug syndicates don’t care about the health and safety of Victorians – they only care about making money.”

“So, what’s in it for me?” You may ask.
Spring is truly a magnificent me of the year in our shire. Crops are looking fantas c; lambs are frolicking and there are spring blossoms everywhere. Spring also means Energy Breakthrough (EB) is just around the corner. Last year saw a much-welcomed Cr. Liesbeth Long at EB return to this event a er that two 2022 year Covid hiatus, and 2023 is ramping up to be even be er, with more new events such as the robo cs category. Again, the call is out for helpers to sign up – and it’s not too late! This event could simply not run without hard working, dedicated and enthusias c individuals like you. EB requires approximately 1000 volunteers, of all ages and abili es, and last year two of my fellow councillors and I signed up alongside many others. It was hands down, one of the highlights of the year for me. There are so many ways you can help: communica ons, social media, judges for display and presenta ons, design and construc on, and track marshals. Some people think they need to be available for the whole event. All day long? But this is simply not true! You can choose to help for a couple of hours, a full day, or the whole event. With a range of days and mes available, EB provides flexibility to work for you. If you are unsure of what role to put your name down for, EB needs to fill posi ons for judging on both Wednesday and Friday. But whatever you sign up for, you will be provided with full training, an EB branded shirt, lanyard and cap as well as all the food and drink you need.
Well, I personally get far more out of helping EB than what I put in. Some of the opportuni es that will help you are: Learn new skills and gain experience. Give back to and be part of our community. Make new friends and forge long las ng social connec ons. Promote your own personal growth and self-esteem. Gain professional experience. Feel a sense of belonging and being a part of a unique and big event. So, if you are a returning volunteer, we thank you with much gra tude and if you are thinking about signing up for the first me, go for it! There’s s ll me.

Tractor Pull 2023
A
fter a hiatus of the three years, the Goldfields Rally, Dunolly was enthusiastically welcomed back to the Old Dunolly Racecourse, last weekend 14-15 October, 2023. The event was sadly affected by CoVid for two years followed by the floods last year. The popular Tractor Pull event was finally back along with exhibits of vintage tractors, vintage machinery and vintage cars from the Dunolly Car Club.
A magnificent effort of ensuring visitors and participants were well fed across the weekend was handled by our Dunolly Fire Brigade. They even managed to handle a local fire as well as feeding everyone – talk about multi-tasking. This event was a major fundraiser for the volunteer-run Brigade who deserve our support during the upcoming Bush Fire season. Here’s to an even bigger Rally in 2024.

Holy Rosary is said each Tuesday at 5.00 pm in St. Mary’s Church, to pray for the sick in the parish. We would warmly welcome all who wish to a end and join in prayer. In these very uncertain mes, to come together in prayer for peace in the world, and in our lives and in our hearts, would be a loving act of community, so we are looking to have a further monthly rosary, perhaps on Tuesday again, but at an earlier me to accommodate people who would prefer this.

When a car is hit by a train on a crossing near the driver's home, I o en wonder why. I had a wake-up call the other day when I crossed the Broadway railway line, looked to the right, and saw a train very close. It was parked there wai ng for whatever they wait for. The red light came on just a er I crossed over. You get used to that line not being used a lot. I was pulling up weeds the other day when a ny white ball ran across the ground. When I looked closely, I saw it was being carried away by a frightened li le mum spider. I saw a good example of Mission Impossible in Maryborough on Monday. Someone had cut down their yuccas and put the huge pieces on the nature strip for anyone to take. The car that pulled up there was about the size of mine and there was no way any of the yuccas would fit in. Had a bird week here. On Tuesday the spoonbill came sailing into the dam accompanied by a cacophony of mynas. The spoonbill's wingspan is really impressive. Then on Wednesday I no ced a strange bird on the dam bank. I think it was a cormorant - it was quite big and stood like one. I don't think there are any fish in the dam, but there may be yabbies. ROSIE
Just for a Laugh I didn't have to finish college to know what golf was all about. All you need to know is to hit the ball, find it, and hit again un l it disappears into the hole in the ground.

Tarnagulla Golf Club A warm Hello to all our Members, Families, Friends and Supporters. Thank you to all who came to the "Pop-Up" Event and ensured we all had a wonderful me. Tarnagulla was brilliant in its sunshine and azure blue sky. What a glorious day! Everlas ng daisies were shining their bright colours all about the Course and even dainty "Eggs and Bacon" wildflowers were showing their splendour. The air was fresh and pure and here and there a scent of a perfumed bush would surprise us. As we all relaxed into our games there was goodwill, friendship, and humour everywhere. Everyone encourages everyone else, and you just have such a good feeling that it's all like being on a really friendly team. The volunteers who ready the course are stellar (Dave, Peter and Peter in par cular) and we are so lucky to have their exper se. Bravo to you all. Of course, once back at the Club House, laughter and animated talking filled the room. Jan Sharman is to be thanked for her incredible morning tea where we were tempted with a huge chocolate sponge - with coffee cream filling- and chocolate eclairs, lots of slices, sandwiches, and Mary's banana bread. Dave Shay was completely right when he declared: "Calories don't count on a Saturday!" Oh, yes, that sounded right to me (and everyone else.). Ha. One thing had been puzzling us was how some of the pins had developed a bend in them. It was a mystery deserving of Agatha Chris e! Well, that has been solved! One of our members, playing early morning, spo ed two very large "goofy" kangaroos hop onto a sand and then stand either side of the pin.
One kangaroo would box the pin un l it hit the other kangaroo in the chest (with a whack) and then do that again and again and again! Our informant said he could almost hear the kangaroos laughing! Whether it was pleasure or punishment, who knows, but it was definitely fun and mischief from our local kangaroos! Over Summer, we will bend those pins straight again, but should you no ce a bent pin, have a bit of a laugh at our kangaroos boxing the pin. At the "Pop-Up" Event the Raffle was fun and then prizes were given to: WINNERS: WOMEN: 1st Place: JENNY HONEYMAN (Who had family join her and obviously "put her best game forward". Well done, Jenny. ) Runner-Up: ROBYN RAVENHALL (Who besides doing so well at golf makes incredible fruit or cheese scones!) MEN: 1st Place: RON SANDERSON (Ron is the ul mate quiet achiever and such a darn good man to talk to.) Runner-Up: PETER SANDERSON What a duo the Sandersons are. Such lovely people. (Peter is Ron's son.) NEAREST THE PIN: PETER SANDERSON LONGEST DRIVE: PETER SANDERSON We were pleased to welcome back Wendy SUTTON (née HANCOCK) who was another bright light at morning tea. Wendy's recall of the Club decades ago and of past players was fabulous. Thank you one and all for making the "Pop-Up" Event a marvelous success. This was our last Event for the 2023 year but the course is open 365 days a year, so come along and try the course out any me or any day you wish. Members play at no cost every day. Others are $5 per day which you just pop into the box near where the li le buckets of soil hang up. We've had a great year and are all looking forward to lots of events next year. You're all such a posi ve group of people and are the essence of the Club's ongoing success. Thank you. Best wishes, Mary McNamee, Secretary WWW.FACEBOOK.COM/TARNAGULLAGOLFCLUB/

DUNOLLY BOWLING CLUB Tuesday 10/10 - Dunolly Blue played Highland Gold at Dunolly. Tony Galofaro defeated Adrian Smith 1211. Greg Dobbins lost to Corrie Moss 16-22. Alan Weir defeated Jeane e Oliver 24-12. Dunolly Blue won 55-45. Dunolly Gold had a Bye. Wednesday 11/10 - It was Maldon’s turn to host the weekly Wednesday triples. Bernie Lanfranchi won the meat raffle, Barry Mortlock won a tub of honey. Well done guys. Keep up the good work, a few more wins and we will be at Bernie’s for a BBQ Tea, with the meat marinated in honey. Now we just need a few bo les of wine, and it will be a great a ernoon. Thursday 12/10 - Maryborough Highland hosted the monthly Thursday triples. The game was delayed for a short while due to drizzling rain. Once it stopped the games began, during the first game, the grey/ black clouds started to roll in while bowlers fran cally looked at their weather Apps. The second game began so did the drizzle of rain turning to heavy showers. Some brave hearts kept playing, then the hailstones came. The game was adjourned. The last game began, all was good, although the wind was on the chilly side, then Mother Nature, opened up again so the last game was cancelled. As the bowlers packed their bowls away, slowly the sky turned blue, and the sun began to shine. This weather can only happen in Victoria! Saturday 14/10 - Weekend Pennant has begun for season 2023-2024. Dunolly Blue vs Talbot Gold at Home: Greg Dobbin Defeated P. Radstock 20-15. Peter Waters Lost to P. McLoughlin 22-23. T. Galofaro Defeated P. Fletcher 24-17. The game was very close all day. Dunolly Green vs Carisbrook at home: Aaron Bri on’s team were the only winners today, unfortunately Wayne McLesh and Sandra Chaplin’s team had a loss. Our four younger bowlers, Keish, Cory, Ellio and Jordan all played well; it was encouraging to see the bowlers from Carisbrook giving our young bowlers words of encouragement. Lore a Parker who was asked to play as one of Dunolly’s bowlers became ill, it was Lore a’s first game for some me, hopefully she might be able to play a game or two this season. Dunolly Gold travelled to Maryborough Golf: Roy Pickering defeated G. Carmody 27-24. Bernie Lanfranchi lost to A. Chambers 15-31. Peter Freemantle lost to K. Prime 13-22. Dunolly Gold 55—Gold Blue 77. REMEMBER SATURDAY 21/10 is our Fish, Chips and Pizza night. If you haven’t put your name down and would like to come, you had be er get in quick.
