AFD On Hiatus

 

 

The time has come once again for me to make one of my twice annual treks to Missouri to see my Lyme Disease specialist.   I will  have very limited Internet access while I'm gone, and probably none until at least next Sunday.  

 

While this hardly qualifies as a pleasure trip, I hope to recharge my batteries a bit while I'm gone, and will stay a few extra days at St. Augustine Beach on my way home. 

 

Luckily things are pretty quiet.

 

While I'm gone my readers will have plenty of bird flu resources at hand. Flublogia doesn't lack for talented bloggers.

 

Crawford Kilian, the dean of flu bloggers, updates the news several times each day on Crof's Blog.  While I'm on the road, if I can get a net connection, that's where I'll be checking.

 

The Coming Influenza Pandemic?  links to the major stories of the day, although it doesn't update until late each day.

 

Scott McPherson's blog, while it doesn't update every day, offers unique in-depth analysis of developments on the flu front.

 

SophiaZoe's A Journey Through The World Of Pandemic Influenza is always interesting, thought provoking, and well written.

 

And finally the Revere's of Effect Measure  can be counted on to explain the science behind public health issues like Avian Flu, XDR-TB, and Chikungunya, among other things.
