news.com.au launched a petition on Friday, calling for longer, Medicare-funded consultations for the one million sufferers of endometiosis. In less than 30 hours we reached our target of 20,000 signatures. Thank you for getting behind this important issue. Now, in an unprecedented show of unity, health ministers for New South Wales, Queensland, Victoria, South Australia, Western Australia, Northern Territory, Tasmania and the Australian Capital Territory have backed the campaign’s initiative.
