Flu shot time? Google Flu Trends predicts worst season on record. - Slate Magazine - 0 views

  • If you ask the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta, this year’s flu season is looking “moderately severe.”
  • if you ask Google Flu Trends, we’re in the midst of an outbreak that is shaping up to be the most extensive on record.
  • CDC still drives the bulk of national media coverage
  • ...7 more annotations...
  • The CDC’s current estimates aren’t all that current.
  • the numbers can tell us only how many people were suffering from the flu a couple weeks ago.
  • scans millions of Google searches from around the world to track flu activity in near real time.
  • CDC outpatient surveillance figure of an unprecedented 8.9 percent.
  • “Is it going to be a more severe season than last year? I think without question,” Jhung said. “Is it going to be a more severe season than a couple years ago, or the previous 10 years? We don’t know, and won’t know until the end of the season.”
  • the dominant strain so far this year is H3N2, not the novel “swine flu” strain of H1N1 that spooked the world.
  • the figure to which Google Flu Trends corresponds is the one that tells us what percentage of outpatient doctor visits are flu-related at the institutions in the CDC’s reporting network. But a separate PLOS One study from 2011 found that it doesn’t correlate quite as well with another CDC metric that’s based on the number of laboratory-confirmed cases of the flu.

    This team's antiviral has the ability to recognize and induce apoptosis in cells containing viral double stranded RNA (dsRNA). So, they can kill cells containing up to 15 different types of viruses, including Dengue Fever and H1N1 Influenza, while leaving uninfected cells alone.........A-MAZING!
