Abstract

“Avian influenza”, “swine influenza”, and “new influenza” are not the names of disease but “influenza” in humans. The preparedness for pandemic influenza should be based on the measures how to control the seasonal influenza that causes thousands of deaths and hundreds of encephalopathy every year in Japan.
