Epidemic Impacts Roma and Western Queensland Towns
Letter from Queensland reports a flu epidemic affecting Roma and nearby towns, with about 2000 people stricken and five deaths so far. Charleville and Cunnamulla suffer greatly while Toowoomba sees more departures. Medical aid is scarce, staff shortages hinder relief, and workers’ shortage hampers progress. Widespread illness prompts residents to flee to cities as outbreaks grow. A noted performer Marvin Leavetock, 31, from New Zealand, died this week in Charleville from influenza.
