Help for swine flu helpline

While the National Institute of Communicable Diseases NICD authorities were quick to give a control room number to disseminate information on swine flu,they forgot to ensure that the staff manning the calls had adequate information about the deadly virus. A call to the number got a cheerful response of NICD outbreak control room,but little else. When asked about the flu,the official just provided the phone number of a doctor who would have all the information.
