摘要

Swine flu is a global crisis not only because it has caused many deaths, but also because of the public attention and fear that has resulted from the uncertainty of the pandemic. Internationally the response has been vast. Swine flu has received the highest possible WHO pandemic alert, while many countries including the USA have introduced aggressive strategies to minimize the impact of the pandemic. In Australia, the response has been equally significant and for the most part should be commended. Recently a new alert level has been created, known as the “Protect” alert, recognizing that swine flu is “in most cases mild, but occasionally severe”. Yet this alert came too late in the course of the pandemic. The early alerts that did not recognize the new features of swine flu resulted in inappropriate reactions, such as the closure of schools in Queensland and Victoria.
