Health Review

Mr MARSHALL (Dunstan—Leader of the Opposition) (14:11): How many symptoms are common between, for example, a stroke and other conditions which may exist?

The Hon. J.J. SNELLING (Playford—Minister for Health, Minister for Mental Health and Substance Abuse, Minister for the Arts, Minister for Health Industries) (14:11): If anyone thinks they are having a stroke, call an ambulance. No-one should be playing guesswork if they think they are having a stroke. If you think you are having a stroke, or if you think a loved one is having a stroke, the first thing you do is call 000. That is what you should do because a stroke, of course, is a very, very dangerous thing. I am amazed that the Leader of the Opposition should think otherwise.

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Before the leader asks another question I call to order the members for Taylor and Mitchell. Leader.
