Continued activity in trying to dissect out what went right and/or wrong
with the response to H1N1 flu. Still considerable tension between Heidi Avery who
wants s “to transform” the system and make some leaps and the slow, careful (and
actually incompetent) response of the HHS people. Had the PHEMCE review led by
Nicki Lurie under the auspices of the IOM. Held at the House of Sweden on 2900 K
street by the Georgetown Waterfront. I presented a lively endorsement of the Avery plan.
L felt that it made the HHS people nervous. This reminds me of 25 years ago when I was
pushing HHS to accept the AIDS activists and they were conservatively reluctant. They
are not bold at all.
