Vaccine research expert discusses the swine flu in Grand Forks
Researcher says world will see another flu pandemic someday
The problem researchers are having in getting a grasp on swine flu is a little like the story of Tantalus who, according to Greek mythology, was doomed to stand in a pool of water underneath a fruit tree with low braches. When Tantalus reached for fruit, the branches rose above his grasp, and the water receded whenever he bent down for a drink. Dr. Gregory Poland, director of Mayo Clinic’s Vaccine Research Group, said these mythological problems are a good way of explaining the problems of overcoming flu pandemics.
