In many countries, <strong>pandemic plans have been dusted off </strong>or even created in the first place. But a current example shows that in cases of doubt, <strong>too little is still being done to stop the spread of dangerous pathogens </strong>as early as possible: the H5N1 bird flu viruses in <strong>US dairy farms</strong>.
