Minister Harney says despite the high cost of advanced supply agreements, if and when a strain is identified, it’s an expense that will be necessary.

I think the government should be trying to find the money for cervical cancer (HPV) and not swine flu.

Agreed, but you see Harney has her head stuck in the trough with the other pigs so it's convenient for her to have these talks. The kids at risk of cervical cancer are not any way near the trough so it would be inconveninet for Harney to talk with them. It's simply really.

It is a shame. I believe there is a greater risk from cervical cancer then swine flu.

Who needs to be vaccinated? The swine flu has killed very very people this go around. But the last time the vaccine was used (1976 in the US) it killed and paralysed very many more. I still believe cervical cancer to be the greater risk.
