Richmond, Ph.D. Director, Office of Health and Safety, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Atlanta, CDC : influenza aviaire CDC - Avian Influenza This web page provides background information about avian influenza, including recent outbreaks, the viruses, and the risk to human health. U.N. Health Organization Answers Questions on Avian Influenza The World Health Organization (WHO) January 28 released a document providing the answers to frequently asked questions about the strain of avian influenza that has infected millions of birds in Asia. The strain has also crossed into humans with 11 confirmed cases reported so far and 8 deaths 28 January 2004 H5N1 avian strain expected to become next viral pandemic The World Health Organization is to be applauded for its efforts to try to ramp up product of vaccines to protect people from the coming flu pandemic. Despite their best intentions, however, the world isn't ready for such a viral outbreak. Should such an epidemic actually occur soon, millions of people will likely be killed while waiting for vaccines. There simply isn't enough flu vaccine production to go around.
