EU PRESSED OVER BIRD FLU DRUG STOCKPILE
June 1, 2006
The European Commission called on EU governments to decide this week whether to build a joint stockpile of anti-viral drugs to prepare for a feared flu pandemic later this year. The European Union's executive arm said EU ministers should consider such concerted action -- to add to national stockpiles already being built -- at talks starting Friday.
