Minister denies concealing hepatitis C reportThe Federal Health Minister has rejected suggestions she has concealed a report which reveals an explosion in hepatitis C infections in Australia. Commissioned by the Government, the report says 500,000 Australians are likely to have hepatitis C by 2020. The report was received by the Government in November last year. Senator Kay Patterson says the Government needs time to digest the findings. "We get reports commissioned all the time, and we operate on those reports," she said. "They're to inform the Government in developing further policy, it's not some conspiracy, there are a lot of reports we get and we will respond to those reports in due course." © 2003 Australian Broadcasting Corporation

 "A foolish faith in authority is the worst enemy of truth." -- Albert Einstein, letter to a friend, 1901 "I know of no safe depository of the ultimate powers of the society but the people themselves, and if we think them not enlightened enough to exercise control with a wholesome discretion, the remedy is not to take it from them, but to inform their discretion by education." -- Thomas Jefferson, letter to William C. Jarvis, September 28, 1820 "What's the point of vaccination if it doesn't protect you from the unvaccinated?" -- Sandy Gottstein "Who gets to decide what the greater good is and how many will be sacrificed to it?" -- Sandy Gottstein |
