While they've done the right thing so far, they've been criticised by many for overkill. In my opinion it's underkill. They should bite the bullet and have a national lockdown until we are flu free.

What's the point in having half the horses right on Cup Day, half fit neddies running around during the week. An elevated temperature does not necessarily mean EI, but what they seem to forget is, that it makes the horse more vulnerable to contracting it.

We still have people travelling interstate etc. So just when Sydney get right, it's sure to travel to Melbourne and we start all over again.
