The World Health Organization is set to raise its swine flu alert level because of the number of cases reported in Australia. Seems to me that, even with WHO’s caveats on making sure countries are ready to act on the new alert level, as needed, that it’s still overkill.
Per the PDF linked in the story, I think WHO probably needs to readdress the various determinants it uses for alert levels.
The New York Times does more in-depth pondering down this line.
