One of the best things about Flublogia – this little corner of the Internet concerned with all things `fluish’ - is that we have such a wealth of talented reporters, flu-forum newshounds, and bloggers.
While I’ve said it many times, it bears repeating: I couldn’t produce this blog without the considerable work, assistance, and generosity of others in Flublogia.
Although the news is a bit slow this bitterly cold (even in Florida) Sunday, I can heartily recommend visits to Effect Measure and DemfromCt’s Daily Kos columns today.
First, Dem has a look back at some of the major health stories of 2009 in:
And Revere of Effect Measure brings us his take on Don McNeil’s NYT’s piece (which I blogged on earlier today) where he makes some important observations and adds an important addendum.
Swine flu 2009: what went right and tip of the hat
Since it would be unseemly for them to hat-tip themselves, I’ll do it for them.
Much of what I know about the science of influenza I learned from reading Effect Measure, and I’m sure that many others in Flublogia would echo the same sentiments.
At or near the top of any list of new media that has helped promote a better understanding of the issues and the science behind influenza (along with other emerging infectious diseases), Effect Measure must certainly reside.
For more background on some of the reporters, newshounds, flu forums, and bloggers that make up Flublogia, you might wish to look at three essays that I try to update, and re-run at least once a year.
