Seems like some of you enjoy burying your heads in the sand . It's easy to say in hindsight that the Swine Flu is no worse than regular flu viruses , but isn't it the duty of the health authorities to work at reducing it's damage and to warn us to be cautious ?
Imagine if they did nothing and the virus started killing people . I suspect some of you would be the first to ask , '' Why didn't they tell us ?''
Or the BOM not broadcasting a cyclone alert because the last one didn't kill anyone .
There are people saying of the Vic. bushfires . '' Why didn't they tell us ? '' Well the state authorities were very clear in announcing that the conditions for fire were the worst in many years . Some took notice and left , many didn't .
