Alex Moir - When you call 000 and there's no help available

In Australia in 2022 we all hold close to the idea that if we need urgent assistance, it is readily available after an emergency phone call. But when Alex's wife Mel experienced a very quick surprise home birth and their baby boy born was unresponsive, a call to triple 0 produced no such help. At the height of Sydney's COVID pandemic - there were no ambulances available.

Alex shared their story soon after with an instagram post that went viral, and proved that our health system was not just bending - it was breaking.

In this episode he tells this unbelievable story in great detail, shining a light on our incredible health workers in the process.
