Australian State Health Official Sacked Following Poisoning Outbreak in Nursing Home

fice hours opened and advised them but we didn't try the emergency number, it was our responsibility and we accept that," she said.

Liberal health spokeswoman Helen Shardey said it was Victoria's second major public health failure in recent weeks.

She was referring to the trial of Michael Neal, a father of five, charged with trying to deliberately spread HIV among the gay community by practising unprotected sex.

Officials have been accused of failing to move quickly enough to stop Neal in his tracks by detaining him early. The Australian federal Government's chief adviser on HIV, Michael Wooldridge, himself had called for the sacking of Robert Hall, for not using his powers to detain Neal, despite specific advice that he should do so.

An advisory panel had suggested to Hall in January last year that he should use his last-resort powers to lock up Neal, but he rejected the advice, allowing Neal to go on to attempt to infect his 16th victim.
