Influenza Pandemic Plan
An Influenza Pandemic Plan is a strategy developed by governments and health organizations to prepare for and respond to a widespread flu outbreak that could affect large populations worldwide. It outlines steps for detecting cases early, implementing health measures like vaccination and social distancing, managing healthcare resources, and communicating effectively with the public. The goal is to reduce illness, prevent the healthcare system from becoming overwhelmed, and keep society functioning safely during a pandemic. This plan is periodically updated to incorporate new knowledge and ensure a coordinated, efficient response to a potential global flu crisis.
