Planning for a Pandemic Takes a New Turn in Texas

With a state the size of Texas, both geographically and in population, it is of critical importance that a response to an outbreak of pandemic flu be efficient and effective.

No one knows when a pandemic might occur, how severe it will be or if it will be caused by avian flu or some other flu virus.
