WHO [World Health Organization] on an Influenza Pandemic. The WHO has defined different alert levels in relationship to an influenza pandemic: phase 0: the inter-pandemic period, when occasional outbreaks raise concern about the possibility of a pandemic. The following levels of preparedness are defined by WHO: preparedness level 1 : isolation of a novel virus subtype from a single human case, without clear evidence of spread of such a virus; preparedness level 2: confirmation that two or more human infections have occurred with a new virus subtype, but without confirmation of human to human transmission; preparedness level 3: human to human transmission confirmed. 1, record 1, English, - alert%20level
