******************************** Avian Flu: What to Expect and How Companies Can Prepare for It http://knowledge.wharton.upenn.edu/index.cfm?fa=viewfeature&id=1402 The avian flu that is steadily making its way around the globe represents a huge challenge for governments, corporations and citizens worldwide. No one knows what will happen to the avian influenza virus in the coming months and years. Will it mutate into a strain that will allow people to readily infect others? Or will it fizzle out? Despite the uncertainty, many people are taking into account scenarios ranging from mild to severe in order to plan for what could turn out to be a calamity. Faculty members at Wharton, health care professionals and risk consultants say it is important that companies assess how their organizations could be harmed by a pandemic and take preventive measures to mitigate the damage and keep their enterprises operating.
