There are more warnings about the need to prepare for the possibility of a worldwide epidemic outbreak of bird flu.

VOA Stiff Hangmen VOA's Steve Herman in Tokyo reported Friday on the results of a two-day meeting held by Japan and the World Health Organization. Delegates from more than twenty countries discussed a plan they hope might contain the early spread of any influenza epidemic pandemic.

W. H. O. Western Pacific director Sheri Omi Shigeru Omi says containment alone is not enough. He says "all the possible options" must be used. That includes doing more to watch for the risk of person-to-person infection.

Doctor Omi also says some countries need to be more open about reporting infections in animals and people. He did not say which countries.

The W. H. O. says about one and one-half thousand million dollars will be needed over three years to prepare for epidemic a pandemic. A meeting next week in Beijing will deal with how to pay for it. The World Bank has just offered five hundred million dollars.
