I follow pandemic news on the PFI Forum, daily, and have almost daily since Dec. ‘06. Currently there is very little news from Egypt and the moderators think it may be on account of the political disruption in Egypt (it’s getting worse daily, riots due to lack of bread recently). But in Indonesia the very recent news from Indonesian sites (and machine translated) is a lot of cases right now, looks like possible Tamiflu failure, it very, very well worth watching. The mods there know their stuff, there are a number of fanatically dedicated news hounds, and excellent commments to help non-technical people make sense of it.

I posted an article about this apparent Tamiflu resistance the other day on FR, much more evidence now, with several deaths in the last few days. Of people who were treated on time with Tamiflu and still died.

IIRC, resistance to Tamiflu was noted in the H1N1 outbreak, and may well be increasing. Much like teasing bacteria with an antibiotic and stopping the meds in mid course, there is a resistant strain which goes on.

I would recommend adding this forum to your early alert system.
