    Thanks for the information on the bird flu vaccine. That was an intersting article!

    We recently wrote an article (http://brainblogger.com/2008/07/04/ethical-obligations-of-health-care-workers-during-a-pandemic/) on pandemics at Brain Blogger (http://brainblogger.com/). Did you know that if a pandemic struck today it could result in 2 to 7.4 million deaths? So, how would the medical community react to this sort of outbreak? Would they would turn away patients in fear, and that lead be more death?

    We would like to read your comments on our article. Thank you.

    Sincerely,
    Kelly
