Message from American Nurses Association
As the President of the American Nurses Association, I am pleased to join in this signficant discussion on a real threat to our country and the world. We know that as registered nurses we must be ready to respond, both personally and professionally. Being prepared does not apply only to those of us who respond at the time of need, ? all citizens must take this seriously and begin to plan for any potential disaster that may occur in our own community. It is true that many families are already stretched and finding the time and money to do this will not be easy. However, there are consequences of not doing so ? consequences for individuals, families, communities, states and countries

The HHS blog opens today for a 5 week run, centered around a June 13 conference...
http://blog.pandemic...
Please feel free to share your concerns, but be patient.. this week's theme is why to prep.
You can comment at my post, at Fla_Medic's, at all or none of the above. The other bloggers will be posting over the course of the week.
This experiment in communication is open for business. An interesting thing happened the other day. I was invited to Washington to participate in a Pandemic Influenza Leadership Forum Conference on June 13 sponsored by HHS. While the details aren't fleshed out yet, there will be a blogging piece to it.
