WHO says it’s sending team to Ukraine to probe reports of serious H1N1 activity
(CP) 6 hours ago - excerpt
GENEVA The World Health Organization is sending a team of experts to Ukraine to look into reports of severe H1N1 disease there, a spokesperson for the global health agency said Friday. Gregory Hartl said the team was being pulled together by the WHO’s Global Outbreak Alert and Response Network, which goes by the acronym GOARN.
The team will travel early next week to the eastern European country, which has closed schools and banned public meetings in response to a spike in cases of acute respiratory illness believed to be H1N1. “This is something that certainly needs investigating,” Hartl said from Geneva.”
