May 21, 2013 (CIDRAP News) – Science and preparedness discussions
in the wake of China's H7N9 avian flu outbreak took the stage at two
medical meetings today, with experts uneasy about how the virus has
behaved so far and questioning its source and if the threat to humans
can be contained.
A panel of top influenza experts aired their concerns today in a
live webcast from the American Society for Microbiology (ASM) annual
meeting in Denver, in advance of their presentations at a late-breaking
session today. H7N9 was also on the agenda at the World Health Assembly
(WHA) in Geneva, where experts and policymakers addressed the risk.
