If Pandemic = global outbreak, sure.
If Pandemic = global outbreak with significant rate of fatalities, I think not.
Believe me, I am not one to shy away from an opportunity for panic, and I tried for a moment to panic over this one, but in the end, nope not panicking.
A lot of people are going to get the flu. Emergency rooms will be overcrowded (thanks to media overhype) and that could cause problems for people with serious emergencies. It'll be harder to get an appointment with your doctor. But will it kill the way the flu of 1917 (my grandfather lost his first wife and a child to this one), probably not. That flu was much more virulent, killing the healthy and the strong. It appears that those at risk with this one are the elderly and infirm as with any flu. The numbers of those will probably increase due to nobody having been vaccinated against this.
Being a staunch worrier, I consider myself an expert.
