Ann N Y Acad Sci. 2010 Sep:1205 Suppl 1:E10-20. doi: 10.1111/j.1749-6632.2010.05739.x.

Abstract

In May 2009, as the H1N1 swine flu outbreak was in the early stages, a conference was held at the New York Academy of Sciences to discuss what was known about the virus and what was being done to stop the outbreak. In May 2010, a follow-up conference was again held at the New York Academy of Sciences, but now to discuss the H1N1 outbreak retrospectively. The report presented here summarizes the 2010 conference proceedings.
