lpv:translated text	". Mr President, the problem of avian flu has once again appeared on the European Parliament’s agenda. This is a good thing as we cannot afford to ignore any threats. We have to be prepared for crisis situations, we have to be prepared to prevent them and we have to be prepared for the outbreak of an epidemic. We also have to prevent the mass media from spreading panic, as well as preventing various illegal lobbying activities on the part of antiviral drug and vaccine manufacturers, especially as we currently know little about the effectiveness of these drugs and almost nothing about their side effects. That is why I think it is necessary to develop an international system to fight avian flu and to create, within the framework of this system, a network of scientific and research institutes and early detection laboratories. Secondly, we need to prepare national administrations and society for a crisis situation. Thirdly, we need to secure the legal and economic basis for providing aid to poultry producers in regions threatened by a pandemic. The European Commission should play a key role in all these actions on European Union territory. The Commission should also work closely together with European partners and with partners from other continents, especially those affected by avian flu. Here I am thinking of Asia and Africa in particular. To sum up, we must draw up a complete and specific crisis management plan at an international, regional, local and national level. Only such a plan will give us any chance of putting in place adequate protection and prevention measures."@en1
