July 17 Flu Update
Brief hiatus is coming. Right now I am sitting at my computer, surrounded by boxes that stretch over my head. Yes, we are moving the world headquarters of the Coming Influenza Pandemic to a new City. The most likely scenario is that the blog will not be updated again until Sunday, the 23rd of July, but other posts could find their way in. Thanks for reading, and we will see you on the other side. (Timing is actually working out OK....things are very slow on the flu news front).CIDRAP on the recent death in Indonesia.

Safe journey.
BTW, the country Revere dscussed vis-a-vis sequence release was Indonesia rather than India.
Thank you. Also, thanks for the correction. I've fixed it.
