Our results have important implications for understanding and predicting the global dissemination of H1N1. They provide important insights into the potential utility of air travel restrictions on controlling influenza pandemics. We have shown that one infectious passenger could cause a significant number of H1N1 infections during long flights, particularly if they are travelling in Economy Class. These results imply that one individual travelling by plane, by infecting other travellers on the same flight, could cause multiple simultaneous outbreaks in different geographic locations rather than causing only one outbreak. Hence, quarantining passengers who travel in Economy Class on long-haul flights could potentially be an important control strategy in the winter of 2009/2010. Notably, our results show that quarantining passengers who travel First Class would be unlikely to be an effective control strategy.  Abstracts from the 11th International Congress of Behavioral Medicine  are efficacious in brief treatment settings, and our outcomes data supports this assertion. Limitations of the intervention include participant attrition and insufficient access to comprehensive mental health and substance use management resources. D. Further Recommendations: For many, maintaining treatment adherence is challenging. Implementing programs that offer unlimited sessions of mental health counseling and substance use treatment or harm-reduction strategies for people living with HIV could greatly increase treatment adherence. Additionally, public health policy could be modified with the aim of de-stigmatizing those living with HIV/AIDS. Effective legislation could include acts recognizing and legitimizing same sex couples. Comprehensive, accessible health care should be provided to anyone, regardless of socioeconomic status. These changes could help mitigate the shame reported by some people living with HIV/ AIDS, potentially leading to greater help seeking behaviors and lower transmission rates. Additionally, embracing HIV testing as a routine component of primary care could help to reduce HIV incidence and minimize stigma, potentially leading to a number of positive personal and public health outcomes, including increased treatment adherence. The impact of depression on treatment adherence in individuals with End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) has been well-supported in the literature (Hailey & Moss, 2000) ; however, the influence of anxiety on adherence is less clear. It has been suggested that the relationship between anxiety and adherence may be indirect and influenced by other cognitive or psychosocial variables such as locus of control or knowledge of disease (Brownbridge & Fielding, 1994 , DiMatteo et al., 2000 . Anxiety has been related to adherence with antibiotic regimens (Cockburn et al., 1987) , and for patients with asthma (Baiardini et al., 2006) and COPD (Dowson et al., 2004) . A limitation of previous research on anxiety and adherence in ESRD is the failure to investigate the differential impact of anxiety on specific components of adherence (e.g., medication, appointment attendance, dietary guidelines). The goal of the present study was to conduct a preliminary investigation into the relationship of anxiety and renal disease knowledge to treatment adherence. Data includes 124 veterans with ESRD referred for pre-surgical psychological evaluations for renal transplantation. Renal disease knowledge was assessed in several subcategories of diet, medication, and laboratory tests. Adherence was assessed with respect to diet, medication, and appointment attendance. Both knowledge and adherence were rated by clinicians based on patient self-report and renal team staff-report. Patients were divided into "anxious" and "non-anxious" groups based on self-reported presence of anxiety symptoms. Data analysis on self-reported compliance revealed that there were no group differences with regard to renal disease knowledge; however, patients in the anxious group were rated as significantly more compliant with renal diet and appointment attendance than non-anxious patients (t > 2.20, p < .05). In addition, regression analyses indicated that anxiety and knowledge significantly predicted compliance with appointment attendance [F (1, 116) = 3.68, p = .05] and dietary adherence [F(4,115) = 5.95, p < .001].
