"A sweeping investigation by #TheAustralian has detailed a series of allegations that #antisemitism has intensified across #Australia’s #healthcare system since #October7, prompting some #Jewish #patients to conceal their identity when seeking #medicaltreatment.
The report includes testimony from patients and #medical professionals who allege that Jewish patients were, in some cases, deliberately mistreated while receiving care. The claims include repeated and painful attempts to insert intravenous lines, failure to provide pain relief to women after childbirth and offensive remarks by #medicalstaff.
As a result, the investigation found that many #Jews are afraid to seek care at #hospitals and #clinics, while those who do often conceal their Jewish identity out of concern that it could affect the way they are treated."
