Via the Euroactiv.com website this morning, a lengthy interview with Zsuzsanna Jakab, regional director for Europe at the World Health Organization, on the likely change in the pandemic’s status and how that organization handled the outbreak.
The interview is available in two incarnations. A condensed version, and a more complete full version.
Among the many questions asked by interviewer Gary Finnegan are:
What are the lessons learnt from the H1N1 flu pandemic?
At the moment the WHO has a pandemic alert on a scale of six phases. Do you think a more subtle and complicated instrument will come out of its review?
How do you assess the European institutions' response to the pandemic?
The expanded version of this interview covers more than just the topic of pandemic influenza, and gets into a number of other Eurocentric health issues.
