Influenza Low Down
By . Published on 11 January 2011.

Hello, dear panic stricken fellows. Whether you have been living life as a hermit or not, you, like I, cannot escape the news headlines of deaths due to flu and vaccine shortages. Flu is not discriminative, thus anyone can catch it, but have no fear, not everyone who gets it dies so there is really no point running to your GPs demanding what is in shortage already (unless your immune system is very weak or weaker than average adults, such as children and the elderly).
