@LarebL good point, but u no wht media is like - notoriously hard to control! think it's vital tho to protect public's concerns #fluscenario

[Josh C @jdcuthbertson]

@DundeePublicH thnk bout those w/less resources: virologists, pub helth, epidemiologists need 2 work hand in hand 2 help them 2 #fluscenario

[Josh C @jdcuthbertson]

@DundeePublicH providing clear, simple info to public, from gov't to local level, is essential in preventing panic #fluscenario

[Josh C @jdcuthbertson]

@DundeePublicH we must ensure that our planning for future outbreaks is versatile and driven by science #fluscenario

[Josh C @jdcuthbertson]

@monicahytiris @eilidhdear @dundeepublich what happens to those patients not capable of making their own health decisions #fluscenario

[Josh C @jdcuthbertson]

@monicahytiris @eilidhdear @dundeepublich like your thinking.. prevention rather than cure #fluscenario

[Josh C @jdcuthbertson]

@monicahytiris @eilidhdear @dundeepublich sounds perfect! yeah need to make sure everyone knows they are at risk #fluscenario

[Josh C @jdcuthbertson]

@monicahytiris @eilidhdear @dundeepublich who shud we get 2 do this, nurses or other trained technicians? what bout funding? #fluscenario

[Josh C @jdcuthbertson]

@EilidhDear @dundeepublich not entirely sure - is it similar to those with seasonal flu? elderly, those w/chronic comorbidities #fluscenario

[Josh C @jdcuthbertson]

@EilidhDear @dundeepublich I would agree. is it best to actively target them or let them get in touch? #fluscenario

[Josh C @jdcuthbertson]

vitally important to ensure resources used most efficiently so is it realistic to vacc everyone? #fluscenario @DundeePublicH

[Josh C @jdcuthbertson]

case histories bring to focus the human effect and I feel would make others want vacc'd @DundeePublicH #fluscenario

[Josh C @jdcuthbertson]

@stagelouisa I dont think it's untrustworthiness thats the issue with helplines - phone is just one suggestion of access 2 info #fluscenario

[Josh C @jdcuthbertson]

@LarebL @dundeepublich but what about healthcare workers? you said urself should be vacc'd.. that is job dependent too #fluscenario

[Josh C @jdcuthbertson]

@LarebL @DundeePublicH but is it poss to control who calls? many ppl would be extremely worried in a situation like this #fluscenario

[Josh C @jdcuthbertson]

@LarebL @DundeePublicH how bout mixt of both =wider audience reached since some can't use twitter or facebook/don't have access #fluscenario

@DundeePublicH ...the healthcare 4 patients whn thy themselves are the patients! doesn't seem like a completely wasted resource #fluscenario

[Josh C @jdcuthbertson]

@DundeePublicH interesting to get a local e.g... hmm, wouldn't it make sense for healthcare workers to be vacc'd, after all, who provides...
