The partisan battle over Social Security (My last post) is very important to the well being of us all. But, making sure we do not face an Avian Flu crisis in the next few years seems to be at least as important (and I would argue more pressing). We all remember how lightly the Bush administration has taken the flu vaccine supply in the past. Let's make an effort to make sure our health is not marginalized again.
Take a couple minutes today, tomorrow, or this week to contact your representative and your senators.
Tell them to make sure that the CDC and our other federal, state, and local health agencies and organizations have the resources they need to protect us, because they don't have them right now!
