Not just him, The WHO said Britain and France were the best placed to deal with it. Apparently it's because of the level of preparation for Bird Flu the government undertook a few years ago. We have a ratio of the medication at 1 for every 2 people in the UK, Practises and Training in place for each stage of the pandemic (should it occur). Apparently we also have 'first dips' on a vaccine as soon as it's developed.
