This organization was founded as a direct result of its principals’ interest in pandemic, and the potential for global upheaval as a result of it.
We remain fascinated by it, and wanted to share a story just published on STAT last week: It deals with “century-old pathology samples, passed down through generations, which may rewrite the history of the 1918 Spanish flu — altering our understanding of when it began and how it spread.”
Even a century after what came to be known as the “Spanish Flu” killed millions, there remain questions about its origin, and continued fears surrounding its potential repeat. If we do have a repeat, all means of dispensing medications will be needed, which is one reason we are so fond of organizations hosting Closed Points of Dispensing.
