The Treasury Department has released a new report on what Australia might look like in 2066, 40 years from now.

It suggests the federal, state, and territory governments will be spending more on health.

Health, aged care, the NDIS and natural disasters. as the population ages and climate change intensifies. The Treasury releases this report every three years, predicting the country's future. Compared to the previous report, Treasury has lowered its predictions of the number of children women are expected to have and the overall size of the population. In terms of specific age groups, by 2026, the number of Australians aged over 85 is expected to triple in 2066 compared to today.
The trial of former police officer Bo Lamar Condon for the murder of his ex boyfriend Jesse Baird and Baird's new partner, Luke Davies, began on Monday.

He is accused of shooting the two men in Baird's home and of breaking into the home in the middle of the night months earlier.

Which countries have eliminated dog‑to‑human rabies and how did they achieve it?
And today's good news. The World Health Organization has confirmed two countries, Chile and Bhutan, have this month eliminated the spread of rabies from dogs to humans. Chile is the first country in South America to eliminate this kind of transmission of the disease, which the WHO said was the result of more than 50 years of effort since the last confirmed case of a dog giving it to a human in 1972. Chan, a tiny nation northeast of India, is the first nation in Southeast Asia to stop the spread from dogs to humans. WHO Director General Dr. Tedros Adnan Gebriezos congratulated both countries' achievements, which come as the organization tries to end human deaths from rabies transmitted by dogs by 2030.
That's the latest from the Daily Oz newsroom, but if you are looking for something else, you can catch up on this morning's deep dive where we explain Australia's new weed laws.

What eye‑care tips does Spec Savers share for people who spend all day in front of screens?
Until then, have a good one.
We did the 2020 20 rule earlier with Spec Savers, but if you're on a screen all day, that's not the only thing you can do to help your eyes. Lighting matters more than people think, and too much glare from bright sunlight or harsh overhead lights can cause the same strain as staring at a screen too long. So adjusting and optimizing room lighting may help. An anti-glare screen protector on your monitor helps, and if you wear glasses, look for lenses with an anti-reflective coat. Like Specsaver's ultra clear super clean lenses. And if none of that's cutting it, get your eyes properly checked. SpecSaver's eye tests can be bulk-billed to Medicare. You'll need a valid Medicare card without optometry restrictions to be eligible.
