WASHINGTON: As India and different international locations grapple with the Swine flu, professionals here warned that a new wave of the fatal virus is ready to explode and could sicken tens of millions.
Its fast unfold would dominate the proceedings of the North American Leaders' Summit being held in the Mexican town of Guadalajara.
Health authorities and professionals here have warned governments the world over that the new wave of swine flu could badly hit other folks in the deficient and least-prepared portions of the globe.
"The virus is still around and ready to explode," William Schaffner, an influenza skilled on the Vanderbilt University School of Medicine who advises federal health officials, used to be quoted as saying through The Washington Post. "We're potentially looking at a very big mess," he said.
Officials of the Obama Administration said the North America Leader's Summit would discuss the issue and their collective effort to take on it. "We will focus on preparation for responding to the H1N1 and the North American flu season," the National Security Advisor, General (retired) James Jones, told journalists whilst briefing them at the summit.
"Everybody recognises that H1N1 is going to be a challenge for all of us, and there are people who are going to be getting sick in the fall and die," John O Brennan, the Deputy National Security Advisor said, adding that the issue gifts a significant public health challenge to the United States.
