We have to congratulate the DRDO.
At the same time we should try to understand that H1N1 novel strain is a process in the biology of the virus which would change very frequently. However, major change would take place in 2 - 4 decade time. Now with the pandemic being over, it would remain in the population as seasonal flu.
While I appriciate the capability of the country, most important that the country should learn a lesson in this terroristic world is that these could be used as a terror and we require vigilence. See for example, preparation for this change in US started as early as 2006. They were prepared fpr this change. We do not have a surveillance system in place as on today for influenza which is nothing but FLU. Tell me who has not suffered from flu in their life time? Media hyped the situation to cause pannic. But the positives declared in the country have not answered simple epidemiological questions. So is the diagnosis correct? Is PCR the right choice?
These will never be answered!
We have to learn lessons from 1994 Plague, The current influenza, SARS, Bird flu, etc.
The entire scientific community should come forward to talk truth. Join hands to strengthen our Government to face these sorts of outbreaks.
But my comment is not to down play the excellent work of DRDO which has shown our capability. Congratulations once again.
Jai hind.
