Avian "docudrama" update

Category: Infectious diseaseInfluenza
Posted on: January 12, 2006 10:16 AM, by Tara C. Smith

I mentioned this CBC "docudrama" yesterday. Just wanted to give a quick update, since they added a lot of info to their site since I checked it out yesterday morning (including a fictional blog!). So, some resources that might be interesting even to those of you who didn't catch it on TV:

Transcripts of interviews with experts. This is an excellent resource: extensive interviews with those at the top of the field, including Robert Webster, Jeffrey Taubenberger, John Barry, Mike Osterholm, and others.

An article on the 1918 pandemic.

Common H5N1/pandemic influenza questions and answers

It also has an overview of some of the "drama" portions and the original material they drew upon to formulate those scenarios. Overall, a nice little reference site!
