Sommario/riassunto

This summary of the Institute of Medicine's February 2001 Forum on Emerging Infections treats issues including eliminating the vaccine-preventable viral diseases of polio, measles, and rubella still lingering in the "post-eradication" era, and the preparedness of the US health care system for future natural or intentional disease outbreaks. Includes a glossary, workshop agenda, and participants' biographies. Lacks an index. Knobler is the forum's director. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
