On average, influenza pandemics occur about three times every
century. During the past 120 years, influenza pandemics occurred
five times: in 1889, 1900, 1918, 1957, and 1968. There is no
reliable way to predict when or where the next flu pandemic will
begin.
When flu pandemic occurs, there is little or no immunity, and no
vaccine exists. The best protection against influenza during a
pandemic is to avoid exposure to the virus. Use this checklist to
prepare for an extended stay at home in the event of influenza
pandemic.
