The Ukrainian government today appealed for international help in dealing with the „swine flu“ pandemic, paving the way for WHO, the UN and the EU to take over key government infrastructure.
A plane carrying 16 tonnes of Tamiflu has landed in the Ukraine: 300, 000 million doses of Tamilfu have been ordered from Roche, according to media reports.

Nine regions, especially in western Ukraine, have been put under quarantine; schools and cinema have been banned for three weeks as part of a crackdown by the authorities.
Reports from people in Lviv, however, indicate there is no sign of a pandemic, fuelling fears that the pandemic emergency is being hyped by the media and used as a pretext for military rule by Ukraine’s government, hit by corruption scandals and protests over the sinkling standard of living.
„There is nothing special in Lwow (large city, western parto of Ukraine 800,000 people) - the situation is normal, telephones work as usual. The pandemic is in the media, but people seem not to react. The only effect is the lack of masks in drugstores. They are using scarfes to cover their mouths. Allegedly there are several viruses, but none o them lethal.
They use regular seasonal flu to create panic for mass vaccinations,“ says one person who has contact with a cousin in Lviv.
