How To Use This Flu Site

My name is Barbara, and in November of 2004, I had the exciting (!) experience of leaving my home at 3am and driving to a town to hold a spot for a friend of mine who qualified for a flu shot.

While I gracefully froze outside, it occured to me I could have made my soujourn far more comfortable, if only I had known. Known about bringing extra blankets. Known about verifying my gloves were nimble enough to turn the pages of the book I had brought (answer - nope). Known about bringing a chair! And so on, and so on.

But there's more to it than simple suggestions. The time we were told the clinic opened (10:30am) was changed that morning to 8:30am (much to the grateful appreciation of the line waiters). As it was first-come, first serve, the line already was a hundred strong by that time...still, how many residents figured they'd wait until 10:30am to come on by?

And that's why I created this flu site. I went thru the learning experience - you can benefit from my experience and not make those mistakes!! You can learn about some common-sense tips and ideas that will make your flu line waiting more tolerable (especially in 28 degree weather).

With that out of the way, you can choose from the flu links below and also see the current flu headlines available now. Enjoy!
