Swine Flu Scare Overestimated by WHO, Says India
The union minister of health in India has questioned the role of the World Health Organisation in overreacting to the H1N1 Swine flu scare and declaring it to be a perilous pandemic. According to this Times of India report, an inquiry is to be demanded into the role of WHO and an alleged nexus between WHO officials and pharma companies.
The minister, Dinesh Trivedi said it was vital to find out whether there was ever a nexus between pharmaceutical companies and WHO which made the global health watchdog declare H1N1 flu a pandemic virus. ”We certainly demand an inquiry. WHO is not god,” he was reported as having said.
Earlier WHO director general Margaret Chan herself had said that the H1N1 pandemic was not as serious as anticipated.

For the first time in history, the international community could watch a pandemic unfold, and chart its evolution, in real time.
