Health committee  Only two communities in northern Manitoba can be classified as having completed plans, but none of these have been tested.

Health committee  Good afternoon. On behalf of the 30 first nations and 62,000 citizens of northern Manitoba represented by MKO, I thank you for the opportunity to take part in your expert panel on H1N1 preparedness and response of aboriginal and Inuit communities to the H1N1 virus. I wish to point out an alarming trend that occurred within our region during the first wave of the current H1N1 pandemic.
