泰国一直在动物卫生和公共卫生方面努力控制和预防H5 N1禽流感。动物和人类的预防和控制方案正在改善，家禽感染目前得到控制，2007年没有发现人类病例。泰国认识到流感大流行的危险，正在加入全球防范流感大流行的努力。国家备灾计划强调建设自力更生和区域/国际合作的国家能力。应对禽流感的公共卫生工作和大流行病防范工作大大受益于应对严重急性呼吸系统综合征的经验。这突出表明需要加强基础设施和人力，确保公众的信心与合作，确保政府最大限度的宣传和支持，并建立多部门和国际合作。
Thailand has been struggling to control and prevent H5N1 avian influenza on both the animal health and public health fronts. Prevention and control programs for animals and humans are improving, with infections in poultry currently under control and no human cases seen in 2007. In awareness of the risk of an influenza pandemic, Thailand is joining global efforts in pandemic influenza preparedness. The national preparedness plan highlights building of national capacity for self-reliance and regional/international cooperation. Public health response to avian influenza and pandemic preparedness benefit significantly from the experience of responses to severe acute respiratory syndrome. This underlines the need to strengthen infrastructure and manpower, ensure public confidence and cooperation, secure maximum government advocacy and support, and forge multi-sector and international cooperation.
