Free Hepatitis Testing in Oaks Estate | Canberra News

Canberra’s got a free hepatitis testing clinic rolling today—no appointment, no stigma, just quick results in under an hour. Part of World Hepatitis Day, this mobile pop-up in Oaks Estate is tackling a silent epidemic: many people don’t know they’re infected, and untreated hepatitis can wreck your liver. Spread through tattoos, piercings, or old blood transfusions, it’s not just about needles. While Hepatitis B has a vaccine, Hepatitis C? It’s now curable in months with minimal side effects. This clinic removes every barrier—location, shame, time—by bringing care straight to you. Test positive? You’ll get instant peer support and even a clinical assessment on the spot. Since 2022, Hepatitis ACT and partners have done over 1,700 free tests—and they’re not stopping. This is healthcare that works for real people, fast.

Influencer’s Tragic End Amid Abuse Allegations | Canberra News

A shocking murder-suicide unfolded in Tulsa, Oklahoma, after influencer Sara Gilson Duffey was fatally shot by her husband, Jeremiah Duffey, who then took his own life. Days before the tragedy, Sara publicly accused Jeremiah of pedophilia, and both she and another woman had sought protective orders against him, citing disturbing allegations of inappropriate contact with children and coercive behavior. Sara’s social media posts hinted at Jeremiah’s access to a firearm and suicidal threats, which tragically came to pass during a chaotic emergency call where screams and gunfire were heard. Authorities found both deceased at the scene; Sara’s children are now in the care of relatives, and a fundraiser has been launched to honor her as a devoted mother who placed her kids above everything else.

jakson US Tariffs on Aussie Exports | Canberra News kansikuva

US Tariffs on Aussie Exports | Canberra News

The US slaps a new 12.5% tariff on Aussie exports, claiming it’s to combat “forced labour”—but critics see it as political theater, especially after a previous tariff expired and courts blocked some earlier moves. Australia fires back, proud of its strong human rights record and calling the US justification flimsy. The real hit? American burger lovers, who’ll pay more for premium Aussie meats hard to find elsewhere. And with Trump lecturing the world on ethics while his own record speaks otherwise? It’s ironic. When US pressure mounts, tariffs become the go-to distraction—leaving Aussie businesses scrambling while the real drama stays hidden behind the headlines.

Repeat Offender Behind Wheel Again | Canberra News

A 47-year-old Campbell resident got caught DUI with a suspended license — and then did it again less than 24 hours later. First arrest: meth and coke in system, no valid license. Bail set with strict no-driving rules. But he ignored them — cops caught him behind the wheel again, this time facing added charges for bail violation and driving high. Court date: Monday, July 27. A textbook case of refusing to learn — and the consequences are piling up. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
