Podcasts are audio (and sometimes video) presentations available for you to download and watch/listen to on the Internet. The CDC (Centers for Disease Control & Prevention) and affiliated agencies produce a number of these short, specialty broadcasts every month.
Over the past couple of days, three new influenza-related podcasts have been posted on the site, created by NCIRD National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases ).
Although these three podcasts are geared for Health Care Professionals, I’m certain most of my readers would find them of interest.
