H1N1 Flu (swine flu): CDC reported increased Flu cases in
the recent week, with unusual wide spreading activity in 11 states. Almost
all of the influenza viruses identified were 2009 H1N1 influenza A viruses (http://www.cdc. gov/h1n1flu/ update.htm).
Please consult with your doctor for regular seasonal flu and possible future
H1N1 flu vaccination, as we are doubly challenged this year. Be prepared, but do not panic.
