    Snippet: In choosing Malawi for the study, we also considered the fact that any severe pandemic influenza outbreak would have adverse effects and human suffering (including economic disruption) on vulnerable and 'at risk' populations. Resource poor countries like Malawi are at increased risk because of limited access to prevention and treatment interventions, and large subpopulations are particularly vulnerable because of underlying health conditions [14].....
    Document: In choosing Malawi for the study, we also considered the fact that any severe pandemic influenza outbreak would have adverse effects and human suffering (including economic disruption) on vulnerable and 'at risk' populations. Resource poor countries like Malawi are at increased risk because of limited access to prevention and treatment interventions, and large subpopulations are particularly vulnerable because of underlying health conditions [14] . Malawi is likely to be heavily affected by influenza because of its large immunocompromised population due to HIV. In addition, inadequate public health infrastructure, overcrowding, poor sanitation and living conditions heighten any risk of a pandemic outbreak and severity of impact [15] .
