Australian Health Management Plan for Pandemic Influenza

Part 2: How individuals can help control the spread of the virus

The public will play a significant role in responding to a pandemic. The greatest effect on reducing the impact of a pandemic will be the measures that the public can take to protect themselves, support others and build resilience within their communities. The success of health sector actions relies on the involvement of the public.

This part of the plan gives information about preparing for a pandemic and basic information about infection control.
