A Queensland social media influencer allegedly hid her one-year-old girl under a blanket before administering an unprescribed drug through a nasal tube, rendering the child unconscious, a court has heard.

“All her behaviour suggests that the does not accept that her child suffers from a treatable, manageable, non-fatal condition,” he said. “The obtundness, the unconsciousness displayed by the victim child, was deeply concerning to the doctors because on their initial review it could not be caused by TSC.”
