GPs running designated respiratory clinics will be prioritised in distribution plans for the “few million” extra surgical masks that arrived in Australia earlier this week, heath officials have confirmed.

Seven GP respiratory clinics have been established so far, with another 20 expected to get up and running over the next few days, the Department of Health’s Chief Medical Adviser, Professor Michael Kidd, said on Thursday.
