While it pains me to admit it, there are other flu bloggers (besides myself, not instead of) you really should be reading. Truth is, we are blessed with having a number of very knowledgeable and talented bloggers, most of whom you’ll find on my sidebar.  

 

Which is why I try to point out the work they do from time to time.

In addition to being a novelist, Peter is also a blogger, who has been covering the Flu beat for The Huffington Post  (see Blog Entries by Peter Christian Hall).

 

His latest is an eclectic survey of Mercury in American life:

Both essays are well worth your time, and of course the stalwarts like Crofsblog and Effect Measure should be part of your daily tour of Flublogia as well.
