Australia’s peak disability representative organisations said the response of Australia’s federal, state and territory governments to the Omicron and Delta variants of COVID-19 is unacceptable.
澳洲具代表性的身障組織們表示，無法接受澳洲聯邦、州和地方政府對COVID-19的Omicron和Delta變種病毒的因應政策。
They have written the statement to concern about National Cabinet’s decision to permit disability support workers to isolate for much shorter periods than required of Australia’s general population if those workers are close contacts of people who have been COVID-positive:
澳洲行政機構決定若身障者服務人員與COVID-19確診者有親密接觸，則這些服務人員的隔離時間可比一般民眾更為縮短。身障組織們透過聯署聲明對此決策表達關切:
1.Ensure continuity of support by disability support workers by requiring the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) disability support service providers to develop and maintain COVID-19 emergency care plans that respond to the issue of staff shortages
1.透過國家身障保險方案(National Disability Insurance Scheme, NDIS)的規定，要求身障服務提供者制定和維護COVID-19緊急關懷計畫，確保身障服務人力的連續性，因應人力短缺的問題
2.Provide free and accessible access to personal protective equipment (PPE), especially N95 or P2 face masks, oximeters, and rapid antigen tests (RATs) on an ongoing basis for people with disability as well as their support workers and carers
2.持續為身障者及相關服務和照護人員提供免費和易取得之個人防護設備（Personal Protective Equipment, PPE），尤其是N95或P2面罩、血氧機以及抗原快速檢驗（Rapid Antigen Test, RATs）
3.Ensure priority access and processing of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) tests for people with disability as well as their support workers and carers
3.確保身障者及相關服務和照護人員優先進行聚合酶連鎖反應（Polymerase Chain Reaction, PCR）測試。
