On the other hand, it was sorry that little money has been dedicated to the prevention programs, although in a recent encounter celebrated in Beijing 2,000 million dollars have been asked for about. In this sense, Nabarro it aimed that the number would have greater to be given the nature of the emergency, since we are before a possible pandemic of bird influenza. "I know that there is a serious fight in Cameroun, Burkina Ditch, and other countries of the south of Africa, from where a call has been made soliciing the international support and plans of financing.
