Briefing
Note: What's Missing from the White House's Avian Flu Plan
This briefing note was issued by the Global AIDS Alliance
on November 3, 2005. It suggests that history of recent global disease
pandemics shows that the US government’s response can be tragically
slow and narrow in scope. A response to Avian Flu that follows this pattern
would not only damage America’s moral leadership; such an approach
would also fail to protect Americans from a potentially deadly threat.
