The committee charged with critiquing the World Health Organization’s response to the H1N1 pandemic completed a third round of meetings this week.
Dr. Harvey Fineberg, the group's chairman and president of the Institute of Medicine of the US National Academy of Sciences, told CIDRAP News that the committee is still in an information-gathering mode.
The review committee's last meeting in Geneva was in early July. Fineberg said the committee will meet again in November for deliberation sessions, adding that the group will probably have a draft of a report for its own members to review by early January. The members will submit a final report that includes a response from WHO director Margaret Chan next May, CIDRAP News reports.
During the most recent session, Fineberg told CIDRAP News that the committee heard large blocks of testimony from key people who led the WHO's response, including Chan.
