Containment for Pandemic Influenza:
A Letter Report
Computer models and analyses of past flu outbreaks indicate that there is a role for community-wide intervention -- such as isolating infected people or voluntary quarantine -- to control illnesses and deaths during the next pandemic flu, says a new report from the Institute of Medicine.
It adds, however, that government and community leaders should not overstate the certainty about their effectiveness.
