Major Sunday news day with front page article in NY Times
predominantly quoting me) regarding the successful preliminary data from the NIAID-
funded H5N1 vaccine trial that showed safety and an immune response that would be

predictive of protection. This is obviously very good news in our comprehensive plan for
pandemic influenza preparedness. This article in the Times kicked off a very positive
media frenzy with front page articles in virtually every newspaper (it was on the Times
web page the night before and so other papers picked it up) including Washington Post,
Baltimore Sun, Wall Street Journal (Web), AP, Reuters, etc, etc. I appeared on ABC
Nightly News on Sunday night, NPR’s All Things Considered” on Sunday, CNN
American Morning on Monday AM. Very positive “ink” weekend”.
