Flu

Worrying to read about the possibility of bird flu spreading into the UK, and perhaps becoming an pandemic. I just wonder how many healthy people will panic and throng into GP surgeries demanding a flu jab, leaving those who really DO need one, without. As somebody who has had horrendous chest infections every winter recently, and working within a public organisation and spending lots of time in a one-to-one situation with students, perhaps I should get myself down to the surgery asap, and get mine - especially as I had a letter 3 weeks ago reminding me that I should have one!
