Now the WHO has raised the swine flu pandemic level to 5. Dr. Margaret Chan of WHO said:
"All countries should immediately activate their pandemic response plans. ... Certain actions should be undertaken now with increased urgency, and at an accelerated pace.
Influenza pandemics must be taken seriously precisely because of their capacity to spread rapidly to every country in the world"
"Phase 5 is characterized by human-to-human spread of the virus into at least two countries in one region," Rueters said.
