Mr President, I ask a supplementary question. Perhaps the minister was coming to the point, but my specific question is: is the government prepared to acknowledge that those in remote communities, particularly remote Aboriginal communities, are in fact more vulnerable? Instead of waiting for the symptoms of swine flu to turn up, are they prepared to treat people in Aboriginal communities as a separate group that are highly vulnerable and alter the current plan?
