The Briefing Headlines Sept 29

What will slow our STI surge?

Tuesday Headlines: 
Larissa Waters announces shock leadership announcement
Jim Chalmers facing increasing scrutiny as record-breaking hike looms
Five terror suspects to be released on bail in the UK
Nvidia launches new tool to keep AI agents from going rogue 
Madge beats Tay in VMAs showdown

Deep Dive: STI cases are climbing across the country, and condom use appears to be falling, despite government funding to fight sexually transmitted and blood-borne diseases.   

Cases of gonorrhea and syphilis are of the most concern, increasing by about 50 per cent in the last decade.   

In this episode of The Briefing, Chris Spyrou is joined by Dr Stephanie Williams, the Assistant Director General of the Communicable Disease Branch at the Australian Centre for Disease Control to discuss what is being done to curb the rise in STIs, and whether it's time for more drastic action.
