==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...."
 
 
 
The bulletin, which provides the e-mail text and Dr. Puls' response, can be downloaded from FAIR's wiki: {{pdflink|url=http://pool.fairmormon.org/wiki/images/1/11/Pandemic_Rumor_Falsehood_%283%29.330.pdf}}
