Abstract
National mental health access, concerns, and resources The national “Health Sector Emergency Response Plan for Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19)” was published by the Federal Government on the February 18, 2020 (Australian Government Department of Health, 2020b). Both the recent natural disasters as well as the COVID-19 situation also have severely tested the disaster preparedness of Australia’s nursing home care industry. Australia has a strong welfare system which has now been boosted by massive government spending in financial support for businesses, the unemployed, rent assistance, and deferred or reduced tax payments. In 2018, Australia was the 5th largest cruise market globally, with 1.43 million Australians accounting for approximately 5.2% of all global cruise passengers (from an estimated 30 million each year) (Cruise Lines International Association, 2019; Moriarty et al., 2020).
