swine flu...?


the media has instilled such fear in everyone about swine flu that purell is allegedly "flying off the shelves". do people not realize that the greasy subway poles are always coated in germs that could be potentially fatal? In an average year, influenza is associated with about 20,000 deaths nationwide and many more hospitalizations. good grief, people...always wash your hands. (this psa presented to you by a nurse.)
