Ms Roxon says there are no confirmed cases of swine flu in Australia and people should be prepared but not panicked.
from an ABC swine flu article about the Queensland and federal health ministers talking about stocking up food.
Alert but not alarmed. hmm- could it be time for another fridge magnet?

At the very least Rainbow..
But the alert alarmed line they are selling us , well It looks like just another case of "just kidding folks"..
I dont know how media reporting can get it so wrong and why Government departments not correcting false/incorrect information being broadcast so widely which creates the panic.
We were led to believe something like 132 or thereabouts and now its down to 12 ACTUAL cases of swine flu.
Ridiculous and grossly irresponsible.

I didn't even get the first magnet. I suspect my other half chucked it out before I saw it. What a beatup it's been, so far anyway.
The better I get to know people, the more I find myself loving dogs.

You can even go out and by a new fridge for the magnate with all that tax money Rudd is throwing around.
