All managers responsible for reacting to the World Health Organization’s (“WHO”) escalation today of the Swine Flu influenza threat to a Level 5 status should be reviewing and re-evaluating if necessary, their DR plans to support their organization’s business continuity and resilience objectives.   If yours is not written or complete yet, we recommend that you read a recent posting by Scott McPherson on the Computerworld Blog site and take Mr. McPherson up on his free download offering of a new IT Flu Pandemic Presentation and Checklist.  We have found this information very informative and especially the comments to Mr. McPherson’s posting are worth reading as well.   Whatever your position on this issue, you will receive from this download, a resource of informative materials from which you can then pick and choose those segments that may fit your organization’s planning efforts to address this important WHO announcement.
