The mother of a three-year-old toddler who was denied treatment for a serious concussion because she tested positive for Covid has doubled her criticism of the hospital on breakfast television. Deborah Reeves appeared on the Today show on Friday to recall the traumatic experience of taking her daughter Wynta to Gladstone Hospital in central Queensland around noon on Sunday after she fell from a kitchen bar stool and banged her head with force.

You stupid.’ Gavenlock told Daily Mail Australia he was ‘deeply shocked’ and when he saw the message he assumed it was from a fake Facebook account for the shop. “Then when it became clear that it was actually a message from the staff working at the shop, I was completely embarrassed, still in shock and utterly disgusted,” the young mother said.
