GENEVA (Reuters) - Influenza experts began meeting on Tuesday to assess whether the H1N1 flu is still a pandemic or whether the world has moved into a post-pandemic phase, a spokesman for the World Health Organization (WHO) said.
The Emergency Committee will advise the WHO, a United Nations agency, and its Director-General Margaret Chan after reviewing epidemiological data about current cases, especially from the southern hemisphere, spokesman Gregory Hartl said.
"The Emergency Meeting is still going on," he told Reuters.
