Australian-trained doctors are often reluctant to work in rural and remote areas and overseastrained doctors (OTDs) are recruited to practise in many rural Aboriginal medical services. This paper focuses on recent research carried out in Australia to analyse factors affecting OTDs? professional, cultural and social integration and examine their training and support needs. Ten case studies were conducted throughout Australia with OTDs, which also included interviews with spouses/partners, professional colleagues, co-workers, and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander community members associated with the health service. Key themes emerging from the data across all informants included the need to better address recruitment, orientation and cross-cultural issues; the importance of effective communication and building community and institutional relationships, both with the local health service and the broader medical establishment.

Subject Misinformation sources and combating. Significance Technology platforms are acting to fight the rise in false information shared online about the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak. These actions range from preventing advertisements that reference the virus, to directing users to World Health Organization (WHO) or local health service websites, or even removing all content that mentions the virus originating from unverified sources. Impacts Platforms that do not address misinformation will be increasingly targeted as others do make changes. The weaponisation of misinformation around the virus for political gain is likely to increase once the threat dies down. Scammers will adjust their language to avoid detection, with some already recycling banned COVID-19 misinformation as generic ‘flu’ cures.
