NSW’s chief medical officer has done everything she can to push her COVID-19 messages, appearing daily in front of a lively Sydney press corps – memorably once in broken glasses. 

In recent days, Dr Kerry Chant has even turned to the social media platform TikTok to reach a younger audience.

Described by TikTok as a “A first of its kind in Australia”, a masked Dr Chant took part in a 30-minute Q & A with a number of influencers on Sunday night.

She advised young people to stay home, wear a mask and take the illness seriously.
