bird flu

It’s that time of the year again. I scanned through a really interesting online book about the bird flu the other day. It’s mostly a discussion of past pandemics and how the current bird flu is brewing.

And, I stumbled upon this great preparedness guide today. The password is ‘fluwikie‘. Get it while it’s hot.

And while we’re on the subject of the flu, why is it that I can’t seem to find a flu shot anywhere? Well, ok, there are some flu clinics going on at various drugstores and grocery stores, but who wants to wait in line for an hour for that? Supposedly, there were more flu shots available this year than people who would want to get them. But, I read something about a distribution problem and that certainly seems to be the case. Um, how about if someone gets in a truck and delivers this stuff? If I get the flu this year because I missed my shot, I’m going to be really pissed.
