Through lectures, reference materials and case studies, the course provides mechanisms to facilitate discussion and planning among people who may be called upon to respond to an avian influenza outbreak in the United States.Although no H5N1 cases in birds or humans have been found in the United States, parts of Asia, Africa and Europe have reported widespread infections, causing 172 human deaths and devastating large numbers of poultry.Public-health officials around the world consider H5N1 to be the greatest current pandemic influenza threat.The course is available at http://www.cste.org/influenza/avian.asp.Copyright 2007 by United Press International
