Pandemic influenza is an example of an emerging pathogen that could
have, and has had, serious public health consequences. Following
three global pandemics in the last 100 years and the recent avian
and swine influenza outbreaks, preparedness on national and
international scales is of vital importance. With a strong emphasis
on practical preparedness issues, and covering areas not dealt with
by traditional texts, this book covers influenza epidemiology,
vaccinology, virology and immunology, pharmaceutical and public
health countermeasures, policy issues, biomathematical modelling,
ethics and communication between health professionals and the
public, promoting the better understanding of influenza that will
be needed to battle future pandemics. Each chapter raises five key
questions at the beginning and proceeds to answer them in clear and
concise sections, also providing selected papers for further
reading and detailing relevant modelling studies. It is an
essential text students in virology, epidemiology, infectious
diseases, public health and medical sciences, and for all those
involved in pandemic preparedness.
