My question is to the Minister representing the Minister for Health and Aged Care, Senator Colbeck. When Western Sydney woman Rola Raad's fever got worse and her fingers and toes became swollen and started to turn blue she called an ambulance to her home in Auburn. When she arrived at the local hospital she found out that she was positive for COVID-19. With 14 other ambulances already queueing, Rola was sent to a makeshift ward, a tent. She was in the ambulance and the tent for a total of eight hours. Minister, is the New South Wales hospital system coping with the current COVID case levels?
