Flu update

Citing a shortage of vaccine, New York has decided mandatory vaccination of unwilling healthcare workers is a bad idea. OSHA has announced it will issue a compliance directive requiring healthcare providers to implement the Centers for Disease Control's Interim Guidance on Infection Control Measures.  The GAO also claims the intertubes will get clogged by the flu. The flu wary telecommuters will be slowed down because the rest of the sickies will be watching porn, playing games and otherwise wasting bandwidth needed to keep the economy working. "Increased demand during a severe pandemic could exceed the capacities of Internet providers’ access networks for residential users and interfere with teleworkers in the securities market and other sectors, according to a DHS study."
