SUNY Oswego has an active Pandemic Influenza Planning Committee that has been working on the College response to the possibility that Avian Influenza will infect our campus.  Having followed the research very carefully, the committee recommends that the College should respond quickly to any likelihood that the Campus is facing an epidemic. Being suggested is evacuation of the campus before our students, faculty and staff become sick with this potentially serious disease. Realizing that students may need to be picked up on campus, students are encouraged to speak with their families to make plans for such evacuation before an actual necessity presents itself.
