>Interesting. There was a story on the local news this week that flu cases and ER visits (to our local hospitals) due to the flu have already risen 66% over last year's total. We are only in September and the worst of the flu season usually peaks in February.

This version of the flu seems to be able to spread much better than the seasonal flu. Thank goodness it's mild. But, on the other hand, mother nature will continue to look for ways to cut our over population of the planet. So, Be Alert - We need more lerts.
