The state provides "one stop shopping" for bird flu questions. Stephanie Marquis with the Department of Health and Family Services says the new website announced by Governor Jim Doyle is designed to answer the public's questions about a possible bird flu pandemic.
Marquis emphasizes that the normal flu season we suffer through each year should not be confused with the bird flu — that's one of the facts the site explains. The site details Wisconsin's pandemic plans for both people and animals, and can pulls together useful information from a variety of state resources.
