The next pandemic, probably the H5N1 bird flu virus, is a matter of "when", not "if". Please get ready for it. I'm not trying to scare anyone, but please be prepared. Worse case is that the government, and alot of businesses and non-essential health-care facilities will close to halt the spread of the virus. My advice to everyone- every chance you get, ask your doctors and all chemo. nurses and health-care providers what their plan is for when the pandemic hits. You guys need to have a plan B if the chemo. centers have to be shut down. If we get enough people out there asking for a plan, we can get something done. To the best of my knowledge, right now, in the event of a pandemic/major epidemic, chemo. centers might just close and try to ride it out. They're not even training for that scenario. Correct me if I'm wrong. Ask around and post back here.
