We in Flublogia are very blessed by having not one – but two – graphically gifted (and prolific) infectious disease bloggers; Maia Majumder on her Mens et Manus blog, and virologist Dr. Ian Mackay on his VDU Blog.
As someone incapable of drawing a straight line with a ruler, I’m am a big fan and in awe of both of their talents.
While we’ve been focused on MERS the past few weeks, the H7N9 virus continues to percolate in Eastern China, and its threat has not diminished. Today Ian updates 8 (count’em, 8!) of his H7N9 graphics, all of which illustrate the progression of this upstart avian flu virus which has been in circulation now for a little over a year.

H7N9 Snapdate: some quick charts...
Monday, 28 April 2014
I don't have a lot of time tonight so this is just a quick post of some updated charts with a few summaries of some key features of the influenza A(H7N9) virus situation in south-eastern China. At writing it was at 432 detections with media reporting 128 deaths
As always with Ian’s blog, go for the graphics . . . but stay for the expert commentary.
Highly recommended.
