JSN-V-T was a member of the UK Scientific Advisory Group for Emergencies (SAGE) during 2009/10. JEE and JSN-V-T contributed to the writing of pandemic infection control guidelines for healthcare settings for the Department of Health, England. This does not alter the authors' adherence to all the PLoS ONE policies on sharing data and materials.
