The U.S. plan lays out no concrete strategies for allocating limited
supplies of vaccines and antiviral medicines to workers--such as health
care, transportation, and post office personnel--who are needed to keep
essential services operating. Some say the plan should be more like
that of the U.K., which contains very specific strategies for distributing
medicines and maintaining services during a pandemic. "If you have
antiviral medicines or even a vaccine, you won't have enough. You are
not going to be able to distribute this to everybody. So you need to
have a plan," says David M. Ozonoff, professor of environmental health
at Boston University School of Public Health.
