Australian Medicine – out now

The need to do something about alcohol misuse and abuse headlines this week’s edition of Australian Medicine, but there is much more besides, including an interview with Dr Morton on receiving Australia Day honours and a list of all AMA members who were included in the Australia Day honours list; the push by pharmacists to administer flu vaccinations; the latest on the Queensland Health contracts dispute; and pharmaceutical company GlaxoSmithKline phasing out payments to doctors and other health care professionals to speak at or attend medical conferences.

If you haven't done it yet, download the Australian Medicine app from your favourite app store and keep up to date with the latest medical news. Simply type in "Australian Medicine" and search for the logo. Of course, Australian Medicine can still be viewed online.
