Earthwatch has been monitoring the Influenza A (H1N1, also known as Swine Flu) situation very closely. As always, safety is our primary concern. At this time, Earthwatch projects are proceeding as scheduled. On May 15 we will decide the status of the teams projected to field in Mexico in late May, June and July, and will contact all impacted volunteers should any specific changes in scheduling be necessary.
