The flu is all over the news this week, and everyone at the office is buzzing about the "dwindling" supply of flu vaccine. For a little shot (!) of sanity, I headed over to the CDC website, which provides enough info to satisfy the most compulsive hypochondriac. I'm not ready to storm the Board of Health myself, but still, the fact sheet on Who Should Get the Flu Shot was a little surprising to me: "older" people includes people 50 and up (though they may not all be at risk, it depends on their other medical problems), and any adults with asthma as well as pregnant women are recommended to get it, news to me. Hmmmm, I think I'll be sealing myself into a big Ziploc bag all winter...
