Actually, the full title is the London Regional Resilience Flu Pandemic Response Plan which is available as a 126-page PDF file. The release date is March, 2009.
The London Regional Resilience Flu Pandemic Response Plan
The London Regional Resilience Flu Pandemic Response Plan has been updated to incorporate the guidance published by the Department of Health and Cabinet Office on dealing with an Influenza Pandemic.
In the event of a flu pandemic it is essential that not only London’s organisations work in a coordinated manner, but also that the public are fully supportive of what actions are being taken on their behalf. A Flu Pandemic will spread rapidly, whether or not the source of the outbreak is outside the UK, therefore it is imperative that there is cooperation between the public and those organisations implementing the response plan.
This document is intended to be informative, setting out the background of a flu pandemic and the impact on individuals health. Therefore, Londoners should prepare themselves by taking time to consider this document in order to inform themselves of the consequences of a Flu pandemic and also to understand how the various organisations that will counter a pandemic.
As many important features of a pandemic will not become apparent until human-to-human transmission begins, it is essential that plans created by private businesses and organisations must be:
- constructed to deal with a wide range of possibilities
- based on an integrated multi-sector approach
- built on effective service and business continuity arrangements
The Plan uses an action chart approach, detailing phase-by-phase actions and outputs for organisations within the London Resilience Partnership, based around the World Health Organisation's (WHO) 6 phase model and the UK's 4 level alertstructure for pandemic influenza.
