Haiti Earthquake Appeal

So there's already a lot of good charitable events and ways people can help the people of Haiti, but in case you're still wondering in what way you can contribute and help in some way the efforts of the diasaster recovery there, then I'm providing a link which lets you donate to the Red Cross - a very reputable British humanitarian organization. It's a sad way to start of the year with this kind of post, (I was hoping to recap on last year and how the swine flu pandemic broke out and then eventually died down, but now this seems trivial). Thanks for reading this.

Happy New Year!

Well as the first blog post of 2010, it seems only fitting to do the obligatory Happy New Year Post. 2009 was one in which we all witnessed the fear - spread largely by the media, of the pandemic outbreak that broke in april 2009. But the tail end of 2009 saw it dying down, and fears softened by the release of a general vaccination widely available and initially dispensed to vulnerable groups. 2010 will probably still have some media coverage here and then, so I shall endeveaour to keep the blog running, with some updated information as and when it's released. But, let's hope that I don't need to write about a new outbreak of swine flu in 2010.

Thanks for following, and continue to post me your comments and ideas for the blog.

Happy New Year.
