|  | ==Question: Did the medical coordinator for the Church's Humanitarian Emergency Response warn of an impending flu pandemic?==
 |  | 
|  | ===This claim is false=== 
 |  | 
|  | 
 |  | 
 | 
|  | A frequently-forwarded e-mail purporting to describe a conference given by Dr. Susan Puls, medical coordinator for the Church's Humanitarian Emergency Response has been circulating.  The e-mail purports to describe an impending flu pandemic and the anticipated problems associated with it.
 |  | 
|  | 
 |  | 
 | 
|  | The CES released a bulletin debunking this rumor.  Dr. Puls describes the e-mail as "totally misleading and false," which "was full of misquotes, half truths, and just plain falsehoods. It supported a fear based preparedness which is not a true and correct principle...."
