Sanitation Supply Association (CSSA) sponsored two seminars on Pandemic
Preparedness in April. Held at the Ramada Plaza Hotel in Moncton,

Community Development, Canadian Red Cross, New Brunswick region, was the guest speaker.
On Apr. 19, Dr. Todd Hatchette, director of Virology and Immunology, Queen

Kings College in Halifax.
This session had over 65 registrants representing a broad spectrum of industry
