Coming up

Almost like "don't shoot til you see the whites of their eyes". That dose of reality was just what I needed Albert, thanks, and it is so true. We will know.

Knowledge is power. We must power over.
Thank you Albert.
Good luck to all.

My biggest hopes and greater fears for the handeling of this pandemic lies in the hands of the media.  My hope is that they continue in the fashion in the way they presented the big story the other day of the infected birds in Michigan.  That was honest transparent reporting with a calm temperment.  I even heard a brief but good CBS report on the story on the radio on my way home from work.  I sense we will see more and more coverage and information via all mass media outlets which I hope will gradually condition the public to the realities we are facing while reducing the panic potential.   My biggest fear would be to see around the clock coverage with Geraldo Rivera wearing a full moon suit holding up dead chickens.

Joseph, have you seen the regional pandemic planning programs done by Harborview Medical Center?   You can get them by going to www.uwtv.org and putting pandemic into the search function.   The programs are all about an hour long and cover various topics.   I thought it was worthwhile.
