A bunch of flu links
While I have read a bit about the flu and find it interesting, if scary, I am by no means an expert, but luckily there are other bloggers around who does a good job at writing about it.
Check out these links:
- Swine flu: What did you expect? (Effect Measure)
- Swine flu and the Mexico mystery (Neuron Culture)
- Outbreak vs epidemics (Slate)
- Understanding the outbreak: an influenza biology primer (Ars Technica)
- Swine flu: what do CFR, virulence and mortality rate means? (Effect Measure)
Also check out the Flu Wiki and you can follow the spread of the swine flu at google maps.

I was just reading this report about the danish preparedness in case of a pandemic fly (in danish):
http://www.dsi.dk/Publikationer/Publikationer/influ/frz_influ.htm
Apparently the danish authorities have stock piled antiviral medicine enough to treat 18% of the population. Norway, England and France have enough to treat 30%, 25% and 23% respectively.
Interesting to see the table in Appendix 1 about which work sectors should get treatment first.

I sandhed ja … hvorfor vil man prioritere vuggestuer, fritidshjem, og den slags… hvis der er en epidemi i gang er det vel bedre ikke at samle ungerne i clustre der forkorter smidte vejene.
Nå, jeg vil læse hele rapporten og se hvad der står; tak for linket Søren!
