 | Date of last change: April 2009 Type of document: Guideline; Pages: 35; Time allotted: N.A. Description: Successful containment or control of pandemic influenza will rely on early recognition of sustained human-to-human transmission which requires a system for outbreak detection, rapid data collection, analysis, assessment and timely reporting. Early detection of the start of a pandemic is crucial to rapidly implement measures to stop the pandemic at its source and to prevent millions of deaths, social disruption and economic loss. As part of national pandemic preparedness planning each country should prepare for enhanced surveillance to (i) detect the emergence of the new disease, (ii) characterize the disease (epidemiology, clinical manifestations, severity) and (iii) monitor its evolution. |

Description: A tool to assist countries assessing their Pandemic Preparedness plan Abstract: The capacity of countries for influenza pandemic planning varies, and they may be at different stages of the planning process. The aim of the pandemic preparedness checklist is primarily to provide an outline of the essential minimum elements of preparedness, as well as elements of preparedness that are considered desirable. It is recommended that responsible authorities or institutes in countries that are in the process of planning should consider the specific aspects of the checklist for which they are responsible. Countries that already have a national pandemic preparedness plan in place may use the checklist to evaluate the completeness of the current plan. |
