Video: International Visitors at MSU
|
 | It's the unthinkable... and yet officials say it's something we HAVE to think about. Today a delegation of international visitors from Bangladesh, Ghana, and India discussed a possible Flu pandemic and how it could impact our population. Representatives from the county, the city, the First District Health Unit, the Red Cross and others met at UND's Family Practice Center to share how they'd respond to an outbreak. Dr. Kim Krohn says it was a good way to prepare for a host of possible emergencies.... (Dr. Kim Krohn, UND Family Practice) It could help us in finding the best way of confining infectious disease to a certain area before it hits a more widespread path across the world. It could help us prevent influenza like the 1918 epidemic that killed millions of people throughout the world. Today's meeting included an interactive television visit from an expert at the Centers For Disease Control. |
