Bird Flu in America
The news has be promising a deadly bird flu plague for over a year now. I think the closest we are really going to see to anything remotely devastating are in tonight's ABC movie, Fatal Contact: Bird Flu in America. It stars the crazy wife from Nip/Tuck as a member of the Epidemic Intelligence Service (I wonder if Homeland Security will absorb them like CTU) trying to stop the outbreak in America, but it's too late. For all the talk of bird flu, we just finished one of the mildest flu seasons in recent years. If you get it, use the ancient white man remedy of Chicken Soup and Nyquil.
