AIRLINES are telling staff to deny boarding to passengers showing flu-like symptoms amid fears the first Australian case of the deadly pneumonia outbreak that has triggered a global alert may have surfaced in Western Australia.

The West Australian Health Department confirmed last night it was investigating a person with symptoms similar to Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome, which has killed nine people in eight countries.

Are you saying it was in Australia first? Or there is just another case of it? Remember the movie "The Stand".
