When we hear someone is unwell or going through treatment, often our first instinct is to cook them food, or offer to look after the kids, or visit them in hospital. All those things just became more risky, than helpful. So how can we help people with compromised immune systems, without risking making them more sick. Meg Archer knows what it's like to have a community rally round her and also knows how vulnerable this virus makes her now. Meg reckons you can give the casserole a miss and runs us through plenty of other ways we can help. You'll also meet Robyn McKinnon who works in private practice as a mental health social worker and is a front line health worker, as she gives us some simple things that we can do to 'work with' the system, help people who are unwell AND help the health workers who are looking after them.
