several of my students have told me they are being required to get vaccinated this next week. the foreign faculty seems to know nothing. there have been some "warnings" about a possible "problem" but nothing really in writing.
snyone out there getting "warnings" from their schools or companies?
along with the bird flu, we know have this?
a note: this morning while shopping in a Guangzhou super/mega market I noticed that people are wearing the surgical masks - only about 5 ot 6 in the crowd BUT are we not being informed about the seriousness of this? |

I'm back in the west these days and recently have noticed several articles on bird flu. The WHO and CDC of the U.S. are concerned. Not to worry you too much, but there is talk about a mutation of the bug and a possible pandemic. That could explain the masks, people taking precautions, or as you say, something else they know about which may or may not be serious.
