Get Your Shots

No, not those you dummies.

Starting this week, get your flu shots at the Thomas Jefferson Health District offices.  You don’t need an appointment, but you may want to call ahead and make sure that flu shots are available.  They cost $30 if you don’t have insurance.

There is NO EBOLA in Charlottesville

EBOLA

While the local media is reporting on the fact that there is no West Nile in Charlottesville, we wanted to let you know there is no EBOLA virus in Charlottesville.  According to the Center for Disease Control, there haven’t been any reported cases of human EBOLA virus in Virginia for 2008 to date.  There have been some bodily fluids that have been tested, but none were found to contain EBOLA in this area.

If you get EBOLA, it will likely occur in the end of your life and that will happen extremely quickly.  You should turn yourself into the authorities if you have any signs of internal and external hemorrhage from orifices, such as the nose and mouth may also occur, as well as from incompletely healed injuries such as needle-puncture sites.

UPDATE: OMG THEY ARE TRAINING FOR BIOHAZARD INCIDENTS.. IS THERE EBOLA IN CHARLOTTESVILLE?!!? (Thanks Tuffy)

The Flu Will Get You

flu virginia charlottesville

It’s an epidemic. Seriously, I heard half of the local school children are sick. I’ve got it. You probably have it. If you don’t have it, you should be very, very scared. We’ve put together some images from the CDC to help you realize what a substantial problem the flu is. Oh, and of course, this is the year I neglect to get a flu shot. Next year will be different!

Also, could everyone please share their best home remedies for curing the flu?

Do you have (or did you have) the flu this year?
