For Haiti And Relief Efforts

by: DemFromCT

Sun Jan 17, 2010 at 09:31:18 AM EST

Not flu-related, but on everyone's radar Unrelated to flu, but a reprint of information I recieved from the American Thoracic Society:

InterAction, based in Washington, D.C., is the largest coalition of U.S.-based international nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) focused on the world's poor and most vulnerable people. They have compiled a list of more than 60 organizations with relief efforts underway in Haiti and a description of those efforts that may help you decide where to donate your money.
Also, my favorite right now is Partners in Health because they are up, running and relatively unaffected by Port Au Prince damage (they're rural).

Lessons From The Pandemic

by: DemFromCT

Sun Nov 15, 2009 at 22:43:28 PM EST

We aren't quite done with this particular flu outbreak. The 2009 H1N1 pandemic (aka swine flu) is declining in most places in the US (not in New England yet, but that will come) and we have no idea whether there will be a third wave in spring (maybe), or whether lower amounts of H1N1 illness will hang out like it did all summer (probably.) Vaccine can help to mitigate that, so get your shot when it becomes available (use google maps to find one near you). There's room on line for everyone, but the head of the line belongs to pregnant women and children, followed by older children as well as 25-64 year olds with underlying conditions. And even as flu declines, we already know that we can learn some lessons from what has already occurred in the spring and fall.
