Isn't it also about time they pick another few random flu-related deaths in Asia or Africa and name the strain after some dirty animal? The bird and swine thing went over pretty well for the industry with millions of folks lining up and begging for shots...

For the next Global flu shot pitch, I'm offering 10 to 1 that they name it 'rat flu', 20 to 1 on 'duck dung flu', and '200 to 1 on 'dodo bird flu'.
