On Thursday, nearly 50 state and University health officials met on the Tempe campus to discuss the effects of H1N1 and how college campuses can be better prepared for a future event of widespread disease.
This month marks one year since the H1N1 pandemic, often called swine flu, that infected an estimated 60 million people, hospitalized 270,000 in the U.S. and resulted in the death of 12,270, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
The conference was hosted by ASU Pandemic Planning Committee, a group of 31 health experts and administrators in charge of the University?s response and procedures in the event of health-related emergencies.
