When I read the story in the paper this morning (Yes Virginia, I still stain my hands with soy based ink in the morning skimming an old timey product I don’t trust), I was surprised by the revelation that in instead of waiting for air travel to disperse a deadly new flu virus around the world, researchers were speeding up the process by shipping 50 year old deadly flu virus around the world. A company included it as part of a test kit used in routine quality control for labs.
What were they thinking? They weren’t.
The good news is that people born before 1968 may have some immunity, so the funWife and I are OK. The bad news is my kids were born after then.
