Qld: Qld passengers cleared of swine flu after NZ flight
BRISBANE, April 29 AAP - Seven Queensland passengers who were on the flight with New
Zealand school children who contracted swine flu have been cleared of the virus.
Federal Health Minister Nicola Roxon said only two of the seven people from Queensland
who had been aboard the flight had flu symptoms.
"None of the (15 Australian) passengers, other than two in Queensland, were showing
any symptoms," Ms Roxon told reporters at Parliament House in Canberra.
"The two in Queensland that were identified as showing some symptoms saw their GP.
"The GP advised that they weren't suffering from any flu and obviously we will keep
going through this process if people identify themselves."
