Pandemic Influenza: Revised National Framework and Scientific evidence
paper
22 November 2007
This Revised Framework sets out the Government's strategic approach to
achieving the Government's aim of ensuring that the UK is prepared to
limit the internal spread of a pandemic, to the extent that this is
possible, and to minimise health, economic and social harm as far as
possible achieving these aims and is intended for use by all those involved
in planning for and responding to an influenza pandemic. It builds upon and
supersedes previous UK Influenza Pandemic contingency planning.
We understand that public confidence in the Government's pandemic
strategy depends on it being based on a credible and wide-ranging evidence
base, which has been objectively analysed. This paper summarises this work.
