Help Asia stop the bird flu, now

International Herald Tribune Article

"We call on the governments concerned and the international community to act now to find solutions to the challenges posed by these outbreaks. The threat of an influenza pandemic transcends the concerns and capacities of any individual nation or region. For the tsunami, the world had no warning. For the avian influenza, the world is constantly being alerted about the danger. Let us all heed the warning.
