A tip of my hat to Crof at Crofsblog who has a link to a terrific interview of Dr. Michael Osterholm, the Director of CIDRAP, which appears today in the online paper MinnPost.com.
CIDRAP is the Center For Infectious Disease Research & Policy at the University of Minnesota, and over the years it has been an invaluable source of information and analysis – not only on pandemic influenza – but on a variety of pathogenic threats.
