    Agreed, but all the more reason why we should not be complacent, but it sadly appears that many are.

      This should be a good opportunity for contractors as most SHA's and/or PCT's don't have a practical pandemic programme in place should the tulip hit the fan.
      Who has time? Who has time? But then if we do not ever take time, how can we ever have time?

        There seems to be a lot of optimism in the air regarding pig flu, but I think it will come to nothing.

          I noticed that at the office. Everyone is laughing it off, the same people who had a little panic over bird flu. Contraian indicator? - everyone thinks it will be nothing, over before you know it, but acutally we will be painting over black crosses on the front doors for years afterwards.

            This needs a poll.

                  Last I heard only 20 in Mexico had been confirmed as dying as a result of pig flu, the rest presumably dying from the usual flu/respiratory conditions, or unknown. Meanwhile countless others have died from things we don't bat an eyelid over.
