Flu shot a little bit off....

So...this kind of sucks. According to the CDC, their prediction of which B virus was going to be popular this flu season was a bit off. Confused by that report, me too-Here's a better one from CIDRAP-the Center for Infectious Disease-Research and Policy that is at the University of Minnesota and an article on it from the Wall Street Journal blog.

Also, here's a little FAQ on how they select the viruses they put into the vaccine, and some other info as well in case you need a refresher...like me.
