Some more avian influenza materials:
An editorial in the BMJ, with links to Department of Health advice.
The Health Protection Agency's weekly reports for the influenza season
An interview in the Bulletin of the WHO with Shigeru Omi, the Regional Director of the WHO's Western Pacific Region.
The meeting proceedings from the John R. La Montagne Memorial Symposium on Pandemic Influenza Research, held by the Institute of Medicine (of the US National Academies of Science in April) are available in full at http://www.nap.edu/catalog/11448.html. This has been added to the Library catalogue.
Respiratory Medicine, November 2005, includes an overview of systematic reviews on preventing influenza.
I will add these things to my webpage on avian influenza if appropriate.
As a slight aside, JAMA's cover has recently featured Edvard Munch's painting "Self portrait after the Spanish influenza". The image is at http://jama.ama-assn.org/cgi/content/extract/294/14/1733, with the first few words of the article. I have the password (and it is on the Library's intranet page) if you want to read the rest.
