WHO has developed a global influenza preparedness plan, which defines the responsibilities of WHO and national authorities in case of an influenza pandemic. This plan incorporates new scientific data and experience obtained during recent outbreaks that had pandemic potential. WHO also offers guidance tools and training to assist in the development of national pandemic preparedness plans.
The Foreign and Commonwealth Office has produced a travel advice Fact Sheet for British Nationals Overseas. It describes sensible precautions for travellers and residents in affected areas, both in respect of avian influenza, and a possible future human flu pandemic. And it sets out the measures taken by the Foreign & Commonwealth Office and its diplomatic posts abroad (Embassies, Consulates and High Commissions) in response to these concerns.
