If I may ask if it is not too late. My questions are "What was your motivation for writing The Great Influenza?" and "How did you become interested in Pandemics in the first place?"

It is probably too late for your interview, but I have a few questions:
1) What are the most important lessons we can take from the 1918 epidemic to guide us in handling the current and future epidemics.
2) What are the main arguments you would use to convince people to be vaccinated?
3) You mentioned at MIT that the 1918 spring wave conveyed immunity to the 1918 fall wave, but that this conveyed immunity was not true of the subsequent waves. What does this mean for the vaccination campaign?
4) Though the Internet provides much useful information, any citizen can latch onto distorted bits of information, can film a Youtube video, and can influence thousands of people to avoid vaccination. How do you feel about this? (the following link is an interview with a woman who states the vaccine is a conspiracy to kill a huge percentage of the world's population

OPINION: When this type of video concerns health issues, should not Youtube junxtaposition rebutal interviews that give accurate information?

Hi I recently listened to reflections on current pandemic lecture, which promted me to ask you about tamiflu resistance. In the lecture it was stated that the seasonal H1N1 that circulates in north america is resistant to tamiflu and the seasonal H1N1 in Japan is not resistant to tamiflu, this is not what I expected based on practice differences in two countries. As I understand Japan treats with tamiflu more liberally than America. Why would the american region develop resistance quicker than a country that uses drug more often?
Also the lecture talked alot about transmission of novel H1N1 and citied the study of ferets comparing seasonal and pandemic viruses. In terms of infection control in healthcare setting there is a real conflict in CDC recommondations and Hospital policies regarding respirator use. There is currently a national shortage of N95 masks made by 3m, all orders are back ordered. Currently all respirators have been removed from hospital to conserve use for TB patients, and policies have insisted that only surgical masks should be used for pandemic H1N1 cases. In terms of health care workers in close contact with admitted patient obviously having respiratory symptoms, administering aerosol medication, and providing direct care to patient. It is common practice to encourage patients with pneumonia to cough and deep breathe while clapping on patients back in close proximity to patient, seems crutial to me that hospitals provide respirators to nurses in this setting. What are your thoughts on this?

I agree with the above. I'd like to hear less about 1918 details and more about applicable lessons learned.
