What is the executive branch of the government doing about H5N1 currently? I have not seen any press releases or statements about it.

edit: I'm not being facetious, and don't welcome flippant replies. I'm genuinely interested, since I haven't seen any updates and have well-founded reasons to be skeptical this is getting the necessary attention.

What, exactly, should they do? At this point it's pretty much just on the producers to protect their flocks.

One smart thing would be: don't actively disrupt -- and perhaps even accelerate -- clinical trials for H5N1 vaccines.

But uh... I don't see that happening.

We already have vaccines (some countries use them) and I've seen no evidence that the investigations into newer vaccines have been hampered in any way.
