  • Title: Pandemic planning: non-pharmaceutical interventions.
    Author: Low DE.
    Journal: Respirology; 2008 Mar; 13 Suppl 1():S44-8. PubMed ID: 18366530.
    Abstract:
    Ongoing concerns about the emergence of an influenza pandemic continue as the number of avian and human infections with the H5N1 virus mount. Adequate amounts of vaccine or anti-virals are unlikely to be available early on in a pandemic, and the latter could become ineffective because of resistance. These factors have focused attention on the use of non-pharmaceutical public health interventions to inhibit human-to-human transmission.
