Journal Article
Flu transmission work is urgent
2012
Overview
Within the past century, 'Spanish' influenza, which stemmed from a virus of avian origin, killed between 20 million and 50 million people. Because H5N1 mutations that confer transmissibility in mammals may emerge in nature, I believe that it would be irresponsible not to study the underlying mechanisms. [...] I believe that the benefits of these studies - the knowledge that H5 HA-possessing viruses pose a risk and the ability to monitor them and develop countermeasures - outweigh the risks.
