Be prepared for a Pandemic


Dear BC/DR Planning Colleague:

Way, way overstated in recent times: "Be prepared for a Pandemic." Our tip of the month is only related.

Join TAMP's Pandemic Intelligence Group to receive the latest on the effects of pandemics throughout the world.

Why? If the current H1N1 Pandemic had been the H5N1 Avian Flu, statistical research tell us that approximately 50% of the people that contracted it would have died. As of June 2, 2009, the WHO reports 433 confirmed Avian Flu cases with 262 deaths. We can all agree that a 60% death rate is chilling. In addition, planning industry practitioners are considering the current situation as a warning, just like the first wave of the 1918 Spanish flu. In these times, knowledge and awareness are essential!
