Summary: Most scientists are agreed; it's a not a matter of if, but when, a major flu pandemic occurs. The World Health Organisation has warned that when the current bird flu crisis becomes efficiently contagious between humans, it could trigger a pandemic that could kill up to 7 million people. The race is now on to stop that happening. But if it does, are we prepared? From the scientists involved in the scramble to develop a vaccine to those monitoring the disease in South East Asia, Panorama investigates how ready the world is to face what could be the world's biggest public health crisis in living memory.
