Here’s the problem. 2-There’s a very good chance (let’s just say 98%) that they’re right. So a 98% this goes away and is just a blip in history. It’s a good bet for them, they reassure the public, and the world moves on. 2% chance it all goes to hell, though. 3-In the ER we say we tell the resident learners that for a catastrophic deadly illness, we need to get the odds below 2%. “Probably not” isn’t good enough. we need to be sure. Because death (like a global pandemic) has no takesbacksies. 4-For pandemic avoidance, what is best practices? (in my mind) 4.1) Be honest with the public. This is a high risk situation, we are treating it seriously, we have a plan. The pictures on the TV are not jibing with the reassuring words from the leaders’ mouths. 4.2) Treat all possible new pandemic-potential illnesses as airborne-transmitted. We should have learned this from SARS-1. We should have learned this from SARS-2. Read the Campbell report (2007) Read the UK COVID inquiry module 3 (2026) 5-That means HCWs should be using respirator (N95) masksnespecially with infected and suspected patients, but also in high-risk environments, like HOSPITALS. That means improving ventilation in public spaces. We should be preparing for whatever pandemic comes next, whether that is Hanta or not. 6-Finally, we need to think about governance. MDs are great. They have specialized training in medical science. But engineers are great too. So are risk management specialists. Aerosol Scientists. Let’s make sure this event, and all future events, are managed in a multidisciplinary fashion. Hope for the best, plan for the worst.
A cliché, for sure. But it is way better than hope for the best, plan for the best. Sincerely hope nothing comes of this. But after this event, there will be another one, and another one. Let’s do best practices with each event with pandemic potential. fin/ May 10, 2026 ‘)
