Bird flu surge threatens shows; Broadview fire; hospital costs blow out

South Australia has recorded 81 confirmed cases of H5 bird flu, the highest number in the country, though poultry exhibits at the Royal Adelaide Show will go ahead as there is no evidence the virus has spread to poultry. A fire in Broadview has destroyed two sheds and several cars after explosions rocked the street, with residents evacuated from a share house where a battery left charging may have sparked the blaze. The South Australian Government admits the $3.2 billion budget for the new Women's and Children's Hospital is facing mounting cost pressures.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
