New in Atomic Pulse: NTI | bio intern Sarah Stern re-caps our recent #NTISeminar with Dr. Lu Borio about the ongoing H5N1 bird flu outbreak and highlight’s Dr. Borio’s recommendations for improving pandemic preparedness moving forward. “For this to work, everybody needs to be on the same side and tackle this together… federal [government], states, local [governments], scientists, farmers.
