TAMIFLU ON HAND
The figures below are "widely quoted on the internet" and are repeated here only to give a moderately stable location. They can probably be checked one-by-one and the numbers will varry over time. Still, the message is not likely to change much.
Hidden in these figures is the fact that the distribution of Tamiflu can expected to be drastically uneven.
It is particlarly interesting that Virgin Airlines has it employees covered.
Also, the employees of US Embassies and Consulates are covered. My guess is that Bill Gates is covered.
The rest of us have the solice of supporting public health policy.
