Holiday Slice of Swine Flu

RantWoman was amused that The Capitol Steps Politics Takes a Holiday had a really funny bit about swine flu featuring both VP Biden's famous line about airplanes and "Miss Piggy Lee" with references to "putting lipstick on a pig." RantWoman easily supposes that one might want to be careful of airplanes; on the other hand, if things are that bad, maybe it's time to upgrade the average daily level of sanitation and scrutiny.



On a more serious note, an interesting article:

The latest WHO update

RantWoman supposes she could and should chase down the source of the estimate that there have already been 1 million people in the US sickened with swine flu. Maybe RantWoman will reflect on something to do with that for her next snapshot report.
