Ding!

I respectfrully disagree. If anything, HHS has taken an ambiguous and unconcerned approach to pandemic preparation. Don’t take my word for it. Visit the Flu Wiki site, where there are grassroots activists and experts who do good work tracking it, staying abreast of transmission and incidence issues, and generally, creating very pragmatic preparation resource materials.

The point is: There is no H5N1 avian flu in the United States. The reports are misleading and alarmist during a week where there are other major events occurring in the United States that have to do with our future – even in the event of a pandemic (which is not currently happening). If the pandemic flu, in reality, encroaches on the U.S. at some point in the future, then it will be reality. It is not happening now.

Impeach!!

Frankl @ 184

Too late to be noticed, but on a similar note, Comcast has moved MSNBC to the digital line-up. I can now no longer watch Keith Olbermann unless I fork out more cash for digital service.

(And for those who say “get satellite TV”, I can’t because I am an apartment dweller facing north – no sat-tv possible.)
