Breaking news out of Iowa. A cat has the swine flu. For those bringing pets to Korea, it might become more difficult soon.

Are you absolutely sure. There is supposedly no zoonosis between felines and humans or swine for that matter. If this is in fact true, this is bad news for all us "sapiens".

Yep, it's true:

Really quite unnerving.

What is happening over there on the H1N1 front? I am in Calgary where vaccinations are a complete gong show, but I have faith that eventually I will get my vaccine. Are vaccinations widely available in Korea?

Gong show!! Classic brother!! If you never get the flu in the winter and usually don't get a seasonal vaccination, you may want to rethink getting vaccinated to the H1N1 virus.
