In anticipation of a possible flu pandemic, the life sciences group at CTNSP has started a number of initiatives to address both civilian and military implications.

UPDATE March 16 2007: Due to the overwhelming success of the Bird Flu and You poster and handout, CTNSP can no longer fulfill poster requests at this time. The Life Sciences office is currently working on version 2.0 of the poster and plan on releasing the updated material on or about Summer 2007. Life Sciences will be taking online requests for version 2.0 at lifesciences@ndu.edu . If you would like to request version 2.0 please include a complete mailing address and the amount you would like to receive. Please note any requests that are greater than 20 copies will require a Fed Ex account number.

In the meantime version 1.0 is available in a downloadable electronic file below in 8 different languages. Please note if you intend on publishing portions or all of the materials and your organization is outside the United States government you must obtain written permission from the authors. Please email lifesciences@ndu.edu if you would like to receive permission for reproduction.

We currently do not have hard copies of the foreign language translations.

Electronic versions are listed below as Adobe Acrobat pdf files.
